About Me

PM

I am a PhD student at the Janusz Gil Institute of Astronomy, University of Zielona Góra, Poland, where I study how the interstellar medium (all that star-dust stuff between the stars in our galaxy) affects the radio waves coming from pulsars which are neutron stars (small and ultra-dense remnants of dead stars).

Since my undergrad days, astronomy and astrophysics particularly focused on neutron stars and pulsars have become my core research area. I also enjoy building scientific tools, especially for astronomy pedagogy, data visualization and analysis.

Outside the technical work, I like making sketches and doodles, curating music, and building my own understanding of philosophy in a naturalistic way. I am also available for anyone who wants help in anything related io science, academia, or internships or PhD applications. I had the fortunate opportunity to be able to help atleast a dozen students regarding my thinkswiss experience.
