My field of research is cosmology. In particular, I work on various issues related to the formation and evolution of the Intergalactic Medium (IGM) and  the Large Scale Structure (LSS) of the Universe across cosmic time. I use various astrophysical probes in my research that include: galaxy peculiar velocities, redshift galaxy surveys, Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropy, the Lyman-α forest observed in the spectra of distant quasars and the 21 cm hyperfine spin-flip transition of neutral hydrogen. Currently, my main scientific activity is centered on studying the Epoch of Reionisation (EoR) of the Universe -- the period during which the gas in the Universe transformed from neutral to ionised.
