I'm a cosmologist and am currently an Assistant Professor of Physics at IISER, Pune. My research focuses primarily on the connections between fundamental physics at microscopic scales, and the formation and evolution of structures, like galaxies and voids, out to the largest scale we can see (and not see!) in the Universe. I use a wide range of techniques - including developing new simulation methods, identifying useful summary statistics for cosmological data, and forecasting parameter constraints for various upcoming cosmological surveys, to help probe these connections in detail. You can find more about my research here.

I received my undegraduate degree in Physics from St. Stephen's College, in Delhi, India, and my Master's degree from the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, in Mumbai, India. I received my Phd in Physics at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign working with Prof. Neal Dalal. I was a KIPAC fellow (2017-2020) at the Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology (KIPAC) at Stanford University and SLAC National Accelerator and Laboratory. While at KIPAC, a large fraction of my research happened in collaboration with various members of Tom Abel and Risa Wechsler's research groups. I was then a a Schramm Fellow in Theoretical Astrophysics at Fermilab before moving to Pune.
