Research
My research currently focuses on different areas of high-energy, astrophysics, hard and soft matter. The connecting thread is the application of string theory methods and techniques to solve problems in other areas of physics. In particular, I like thinking about black holes in higher-dimensions, metastable states in string theory, and developing rigorous frameworks for hydrodynamics such as magnetohydrodynamics and viscoelastic fuid dynamics with applications to biomembranes. You can find all my research efforts here.
