Research interests and highlights
Characterisation of benchmark Mdwarfs
Much of my previous research have involved the characterisation of low-mass M type stars to better understand their fundamental properties such as age, luminosity and mass.
Detection of and characterisation of substellar objects
By employing state-of-the-art facilities to observe very faint objects I studied low-mass substellar objects to search for binarity and companions, discovering several brown dwarf binary candidates.
