Research
My research focuses on testing the theory of general relativity in the strong-field regime. I also work on various aspects of the physics and astrophysics of neutron stars and black holes, as well as on the properties of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence.
Teaching
I regularly teach undergraduate and graduate classes on Numerical Methods in Physics, on Theoretical Mechanics , on Theoretical Astrophysics, and on General Relativity
Research Group
I enjoy collaborating closely with graduate students, undergraduate students, and postdocs in my research group and from around the world.
Collaborations
I am heavily involved in the Event Horizon Telescope project, which aims to take the first pictures of the horizons of astrophysical black holes. I am also a member of various science working groups assisting in the design of future space missions such as NICER and PRAXyS.
I am a professor of Astronomy and Physics at the University of Arizona. I am also a member of the Theoretical Astrophysics Program.
