Name: Dr Pauline Mcginnis
Title: : Post Doc Researcher
E-Mail: pmcginnis@cp.dias.ie
Address: Astronomy & Astrophysics Section, 31 Fitzwilliam Place, Dublin 2 D02-XF86 Dublin 2 D02-XF86.
Research Interests: Star formation, T Tauri stars, accretion, protostellar jets, spectroscopy
Biographical Sketch: Pauline McGinnis received her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in physics from the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. She was awarded a PhD in astrophysics at the same institution in July 2017, after having worked with Dr. Silvia Alencar and Dr. Catherine Dougados (of IPAG – the Institut de Planétologie et d’Astrophysique de Grenoble, France). Her thesis focused on the study of accretion and ejection processes in classical T Tauri stars in the young stellar cluster NGC 2264. She then worked as a post-doctoral researcher at IPAG until December 2018, investigating spectral signatures of accretion and ejection in young stars. Since July 2019 she is a post-doctoral researcher at the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies, where she is involved in the ERC project entitled EASY Ejection and Accretion Structures in YSOs) led by Prof. Tom Ray.
Selected Publications: MCGINNIS, P.; DOUGADOS, C.; ALENCAR, S. H. P.; BOUVIER, J.; & CABRIT, S. Ejection processes in the young open cluster NGC 2264. A study of the [OI]λ6300 emission line. A&A, 620, A87 (2018).

#OTD in 2019 @mitchelloconnor unveiled a portrait of Dr Sheila Tinney here at DIAS. Dr Tinney was appointed the first ever female fellow at DIAS and later became a Research Associate at the Institute’s School of Theoretical Physics. Today also marks her birthday 🎂 #DIASdiscovers
Busy start to the week: An international team led by scientists from DIAS has discovered that large portions of the tectonic plate, or lithosphere, beneath Africa have disappeared over the past 200 million years More ➡️ dias.ie/2020/01/13/dia… @dias_geophysics #DIASdiscovers
An interesting story that includes one of the first ever DIAS staff members. #DIASdiscovers twitter.com/IrishTimesBook…
This week we took a look back at DIAS' significant achievements over the decade from 2010 to 2019. Learn More ➡️ dias.ie/2020/01/09/dia… #DIASdiscovers
