Hello! Welcome to this corner of the web. I am a planetary scientist at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL). In my research, I use basic physical principles and a variety of computational methods to investigate strange environments across the solar system, and the stories they have to tell. Most of my work so far has focused on our lovely neighbor, the Moon, but I am broadly interested in solar system worlds with very thin atmospheres – from the Moon to Mercury to asteroids and outer solar system satellites.
The Research and Personal pages here should tell you more about my research and a little bit about myself. I am always ready to talk about either of those subjects, so if you would like to chat, please feel free to contact me at parvathy[dot]prem[at]gmail[dot]com.
My Google Scholar profile is usually the best place to find an up-to-date list of publications. APL's Civil Space Mission Area website is the place to go to learn more about the amazing people I work with (my very official staff profile is here). Prior to joining APL, I was a PhD student at the University of Texas at Austin, where I worked with the excellent Professors David Goldstein and Philip Varghese in the Computational Fluid Physics Lab (CFPL) on my doctoral research.
