Black Hole

Lensing of space time around a black hole. At Oxford we study black holes observationally and theoretically on all size and time scales - it is some of our core work.

I am a DPhil student working with Professor David Alonso on large-scale structure cosmology. My research focuses on understanding and mitigating the impact of baryonic effects on cosmological measurements, particularly weak lensing, through the use of external tracers of the large-scale structure. I am also interested in developing theoretical and statistical methods for extracting cosmological and astrophysical information from current and next-generation surveys.

Previously, I completed the BSc in Physics with Theoretical Physics at Imperial College London and the MSc in Mathematical and Theoretical Physics at the University of Oxford.
