Janet Drew is an astronomer and astrophysicist. She is Professor of Astrophysics and deputy head of the Astronomy and Astrophysics Department at Imperial College London.

Research interests are in stellar astrophysics. A particularly strong theme in the past has been theoretical and observational studies of mass loss. Presently much work arises from the co-ordinating role in an international collaboration surveying the Milky Way, comprehensively, in the H-alpha line. This project has the aim of re-invigorating a wide range of Galactic/stellar astrophysics research themes that currently suffer for want of good demographics.
