Euclid Science Team

The Euclid Science team is expected to oversee the development and operations of the mission and give advice on all aspects which affect the scientific performance. The team supports the project scientist in monitoring the correct implementation of the scientific objectives of the mission and in maximising its scientific return.

Euclid Science Team was formed in 2011. It has 10 members from the Euclid Consortium, two Independent Legacy Scientists and is chaired by the Euclid Project Scientist.
