#FellowshipCasualty: lost funding as a direct result of misconduct, retaliation, or university politics. The fellowship was the leverage and then the punishment.

Dr. Chadid championed polar observation because Antarctica's lack of light pollution, completely clear air, and 6 consecutive months of winter darkness made it the most perfect place on Earth to study faraway stars.

🔭 Astronomer, astrophysicist & explorer Dr. Merieme Chadid: one of the world's first scientists to establish a major astronomical observatory in Antarctica.

She set up the specialized automated telescopes & tested the optical turbulence of the atmosphere.🧵

She was born #OTD in 1969. #WomenInSTEM

A color photograph of Moroccan-French astronomer and astrophysicist Dr. Merieme Chadid (born 1969), celebrated as a pioneering explorer who established early automated telescopes in Antarctica. Caught in a candid and joyful moment, she is positioned slightly off-center, facing toward the right side of the frame with a radiant, wide smile that showcases her bright eyes. Her dark hair is pulled back neatly into a ponytail, emphasizing her facial expression. She wears a structured, textured charcoal-gray blazer over a white blouse featuring a vibrant, multicolored floral or abstract print along the neckline. Adorning her neck is a distinctive statement necklace consisting of a large, circular, engraved silver pendant suspended from a thin red cord. The background is a soft, out-of-focus interior wall with neutral, warm beige tones, creating a shallow depth of field that keeps the focus entirely on her. The overall mood is warm, intellectual, and proud, embodying the triumphant spirit of a groundbreaking scientist who shattered cultural and geographic barriers in the global astrophysics community.

An historic, on-site photograph of Dr. Merieme Chadid conducting polar research during her groundbreaking 2005–2006 astronomical expedition at the Concordia Research Station in Antarctica. Positioned in the center of the frame, Dr. Chadid smiles warmly at the camera, bundled in specialized extreme-cold gear including a heavy royal blue parka with a high collar, black insulated gloves, and a plush black fur hat framing her dark, curly hair. In the immediate foreground on the left stands a large, white, high-precision automated telescope mount labeled "Astro-Physics," which she touches gently with her gloved hand. In the background, a second telescope sits mounted on a sturdy wooden tripod behind a safety netting enclosure, set against a vast, flat expanse of blinding white Antarctic ice that stretches to a crisp, cloudless blue horizon. The crisp daytime composition uses natural polar sunlight to highlight the stark, freezing conditions. The mood is adventurous and triumphant, capturing a historic milestone for women in STEM as the first astronomer to install a major dark-sky observatory in the extreme heart of the Antarctic plateau.
