Current Research

My research interests lie at the interface between astrophysics and particle physics. Cosmological observations appear to indicate that the majority of the matter in the Universe is not only dark but also non-baryonic. Particle physics provides us with a number of well motivated dark matter candidates and experiments aiming to detect them are underway. The signals expected in these experiments depend sensitively on the dark matter distribution on small (sub-galactic) scales. My research combines studies of the interactions of fundamental particles in the early Universe and the astrophysical evolution of dark matter structures in order to make realistic predictions of experimental signals. I am also interested in early Universe cosmology, in particular inflation and primordial black holes.
