Academic interests
I am interested in the physics of the early Universe and in what we can learn about it by studying the Cosmic Infrared Background (CIB) and the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiations. My research focuses in particular on Zodiacal Light (ZL) emission, a bright foreground signal originating in our Solar System that needs to be subtracted from datasets in order to measure these cosmological background radiations.
