I am a postdoctoral researcher in Theoretical Astrophysics and Plasma Physics, in the Department of Physics, University of Oxford. I work in theoretical/computational astrophysics and plasma physics with particular focus on magnetized, weakly collisional, stratified astrophysical medium -- fluid and kinetic description of such plasmas. I also work in problems in galaxy formation using hydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics.
My current/past research is listed here, my tools/techniques are outlined here. A summary of my current and past teaching and supervision experience is here.
Before this, I was a postdoctoral researcher at IoA, University of Cambridge and a College Research Associate at Sidney Sussex College. I did my PhD in Astrophysics from Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India, where I also received a Master of Science in Physics (Integrated-PhD program).
Here is a brief detail of a new forum for women researchers I started along with like-minded women in connected research fields.
