Rebecca Bowler is an Ernest Rutherford Fellow at the University of Manchester, where she studies the formation and evolution of galaxies in the early universe. Her research focuses on robust identification of galaxies during the cosmic dawn and the multi-wavelength datasets that illuminate the scale and importance of massive galaxies. She uses a variety of telescopes, including optical (Subaru) and near-infrared imaging (VISTA, Euclid), as well as space-based imaging with high spatial resolution (Hubble, JWST), sub-mm (ALMA), and radio (MeerKAT) to explore topics such as the interplay between active galactic nuclei and galaxy reionization. Passionate about making physics accessible, Bowler is committed to increasing diversity within the physics community and advocates for inclusive practices within academic environments. She has a strong record of outreach, aiming to encourage underrepresented groups to pursue careers in physics.
