Research Interests
   I am mainly working on theoretical aspects of supernovae and massive star evolution. I try to deduce unknown activities of dying massive stars by studying supernovae. I am also working on the origins of weird transients, like superluminous supernovae, found by recent large transient surveys. In addition, I am involved in several optical and near-infrared transient surveys to discover the most distant supernovae with which we can unveil stellar and cosmological properties of the early Universe.
