Keele Astrophysics PhD student, Masha Lakicevic, has won a prestigious studentship at the European Southern Observatory (ESO). Worth approximately 100,000 euros, the studentship enables her to spend two years at ESO's headquarters near Munich, Germany.

Masha arrived at Keele in October 2010 from her home country Serbia, to study supernova remnants in the Magellanic Clouds.

Her supervisor, Dr Jacco van Loon, who was also an ESO student, said: "I am delighted for Masha to have the opportunity to perform research at the heart of European astronomy. This award is a great success for her, and further enhances the international profile of the Keele Astrophysics Group."
