Gravitational Waves Group

Leonardo Totti has joined the Gravitational Waves group as PhD student.

Leonardo Toti obtained his Master’s degree in Astrophysics from the University of Milano-Bicocca, Italy. His thesis focused on improving the robustness of tests of General Relativity by working on waveform models used to describe the gravitational wave emission from black hole binaries. His research interests include tests of General Relativity, evidence for theories beyond General Relativity, and the application of machine learning techniques in the gravitational-wave field. He is joining IFAE to pursue his PhD.

Welcome Leonardo!
