I am a research fellow at Queen's University Belfast, UK, working within the Astrophysics Research Centre, while also maintaining close ties with research institutions across Europe, including a visiting researcher appointment I hold at the Niels Bohr International Academy (Denmark) and ongoing affiliations with the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research (Germany), and the Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics (Norway). Moreover, I am co-founder of the WaLSA team and actively contribute to several international committees.
Within astrophysics, my research primarily focuses on the dynamics of the Sun’s lower atmosphere, with particular emphasis on how magnetic fields and wave activity contribute to atmospheric heating. A central component of my work is the development and application of advanced data-analysis and signal-processing methodologies for large observational datasets, bridging astrophysics with data science to extract robust physical insight from complex systems. I have extensive experience in solar (and stellar) observations and have supervised several MSc and PhD students. I am also strongly committed to public outreach and science communication.
As I continue to explore the intersection of data science and astrophysics, I am increasingly focused on advancing and transferring my methodological expertise in the analysis of waves and oscillatory phenomena across disciplines. In this context, I am keen to extend these approaches into new scientific domains and industry applications — particularly those aligned with sustainability and broader societal impact.
