Dr Alvaro De La Cruz
Cosmology
Dr Rituparno Goswami
Cosmology
Dr Nima Khosravi
Early universe cosmology including inflation and its
generalisations
Dr Olawanle Patrick Layeni
CERECAM: Moving boundary problems and variational
inequalities
Dr Patrice Okouma
Constraints on dark energy from current abd future
cosmological observations including SKA
Dr Prina Patel
Cosmology
Dr Robert Poltis
Works in particle physics and cosmology and in particular
is studying the interface of the two looking at various tests
of theoretical physics that can be done using observational
cosmology
Dr Xavier Roy
Works on the averaging and backreaction problems in
cosmology. This involves finding a self-consistent manner
in which to smooth a spacetime, and make predictions for
cosmology.
Dr Marina Seikel
Cosmology
Dr Paramjeet Singh
Numerical analysis of conservation laws with fading
memory in the research area of numerical analysis of partial
differential equations
Dr Per Eric Sundin
String theory and Cosmology
Dr Rockhee Sung
Cosmology
