Roseane de Lima Gomes

Roseane de Lima Gomes completed her PhD at Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, Brazil, in 2022, under the supervision of Prof. José Renan de Medeiros, with a thesis in which she investigated the nature of the photometric variability of different families of planet host stars. For her thesis, she used observations obtained by the NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) to identify and characterize stellar variability signatures in TESS targets, including pulsation, rotation, flares and binarity.

As a CNPq/Brazilian Fellow at the Université de Montréal, Roseane continues to study stellar photometric variability, with a focus on pulsation among TOIs (TESS Objects of Interest). She also contributes to different NIRPS tasks and complementary programs on the characterization of exoplanets and their host stars.
