Amina Helmi receives Kavli Prize
Congratulations to Amina Helmi
Huge congratulations to Amina Helmi, member of the ISSI Board of Trustees, on receiving the 2026 Kavli Prize in Astrophysics!
Amina, together with Vasily Belokurov and Rodrigo Ibata, has revealed that our Milky Way was built through Billions of years of cosmic collisions, uncovering the fossil evidence written in stellar streams across the sky. Breathtaking science that has truly shaped our understanding of the history of our galaxy.
We at ISSI are so proud to call Amina part of our community, and this honour is a wonderful recognition of a remarkable scientific journey. From galactic archaeology to mapping the invisible scaffolding of dark matter, your work continues to inspire.
Warmest congratulations, Amina! 🏅✨
