Ewa Łokas is a professor at the Nicolaus Copernicus Astronomical Center (CAMK) in Warsaw.
In 1997, she received her doctoral degree in astronomy in NCAC, presenting a thesis on the statistics and dynamics of large-scale cosmic fields in weakly nonlinear regime. Before and after her PhD she actively collaborated with researchers at the Institut d'Astrophysique de Paris within many programs, including a NATO postdoctoral fellowship. She also established long-term collaborations with institutes of astrophysics in Potsdam and Granada. In 2004 she obtained her habilitation based on research concerning the distribution of dark matter in gravitationally bound objects. In 2012 she was awarded a title of professor of physical sciences.
For many years Prof. Łokas has been an active reviewer of scientific papers (MNRAS, ApJ, A&A, AJ), and takes part in the evaluation of grant applications for Polish as well as foreign funding agencies (including Swiss, French, as well as European Research Council).
