Research

My research focuses on studying oscillating stars using asteroseismology and involves the analysis of the Sun, stars hosting exoplanet systems, stars in open clusters and stellar binaries. I am heavily involved in preparing for the upcoming ESA PLATO mission and work actively on NASA missions like TESS and Kepler/K2, as well as the upcoming Roman mission. I am furthermore working actively to coordinate the scientific use of the SONG telescope network for ground-based asteroseismic studies. 

 

Teaching activities

Over the past year, I have taught part of the Master's course on Exoplanets and Asteroseismology and work here on equipping the students with both a high level of theoretical understanding of the subject and the ability to work with real data and analyses that relate to the active research at the University. Previously I have taught in master's courses on Formation and Evolution of the Milky Way, Advanced Stellar Evolution, and Projects in Astrophysics
