Research

My papers: inspire.

I am a theorist whose research centers on understanding various aspects of quantum gravitational phenomena. My background is in holography (AdS/CFT), specializing in the gravitational path integral on the bulk side of the duality. More recently, my research has shifted toward identifying quantum gravity effects that can be tested experimentally, either through table-top experiments utilizing quantum information techniques or through simulations on quantum computers. I am also interested in exploring whether quantum gravity has implications (if any) for quantum observers that could be tested in future experiments.
