Gravitational Waves GroupJam Sadiq is joining the Gravitational Waves group as a PostDoctoral researcher
Jam Sadiq obtained his PhD in Astrophysics from the Rochester Institute of Technology in the USA. His research focused on gravitational wave data analysis, studying binary black hole populations to understand their formation channels. He is a member of the LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the LISA Consortium. At IFAE, he will work as a software engineer at PIC, closely collaborating with the IFAE gravitational-wave group and remotely with the LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the IGWN Computing and Software Group.
