Research

I am a member of the Relativity and Gravitation research group at DAMTP, and a member of the Centre for Theoretical Cosmology (CTC). My research focuses on inflation models and how they can be constrained from the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation. Under the supervision of Dr James Fergusson and Prof Paul Shellard, I am developing and applying methods to calculate the higher order correlation functions, such as the CMB bispectrum, to detect non-Gaussianities in the early Universe as an indicator of the period of cosmic inflation. I am also a member of the Simons Observatory collaboration, looking to apply the CMB bispectrum estimator to the next generation CMB experiments with unprecedented resolution.
