Lizeth Sanchez Zamudio

Lizeth was appointed to the MARC program at San Diego State University in September of 2023. Her major is Astronomy and is pursuing a minor in Mathematics and Honors Interdisciplinary Studies. Lizeth will be conducting galaxy research with Dr. Kate Rubin who delves into extragalactic astronomy, galaxy formation and evolution, galactic winds and feedback, the circumgalactic medium, and QSO absorption line spectroscopy.

After completing her bachelor’s degree, she hopes to pursue a Ph.D. in Astronomy to work on cutting-edge research to contribute new knowledge to the field. She looks forward to being a part of the next generation of scientists, astronomers, and researchers that continue to find out more about the Universe and its origin that has ultimately led to the formation of our Solar System and many other extragalactic phenomena.
