Here’s our first winner of the Researcher Prize in 2019! 🥇

What a great way to celebrate the International Women’s Day 2019!

We are proud to announce our first winner for the Sparrho Researcher Prize of this year:

Rushanka Amrutkar, who is a space explorer and satellite remote sensing specialist will soon complete her Ph.D. at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay and convinced our jury with her excellent pinboard submission,

“Space-borne satellite RADAR remote sensing in forestry”.

Rushanka has already spent her Sparrho travel money and her conference of choice was splendid: She crossed several time zones to present at “Women in Space 2019” in Scottsdale, Arizona!

Curious to know what she did exactly to win the Sparrho Researcher Prize?
