Nicole
Wallack
Nicole Wallack is an astronomer who studies the formation and evolution of exoplanets by characterizing exoplanet atmospheres and protoplanetary disks. Coming to EPL from a Ph.D. at Caltech, Wallack works alongside Johanna Teske to study the atmospheres of a population of sub-Neptunes and super-Earths using the James Webb Space Telescope to learn more about the atmospheric diversity of small planets.
