ABOUT ME
I am a theoretical and computational astrophysicist. I apply tools of high performance computing and statistics to reveal various aspects of galaxy formation. My specific research interests include galaxy and quasar clustering, galaxy and quasar halo connection, merger-AGN connection, supermassive black hole formation and growth. My current research investigates the origin of supermassive Black Holes, that are now known to exist at the heart of almost every massive galaxy in the Universe. I create cosmological simulations which trace the formation of Black Hole "seeds" at the earliest stages of the Universe, and follow their gradual evolution to Supermassive Blackholes that we see in the present day Universe.
