I am Professor of Mathematical Physics in the School of Mathematics at the University of Edinburgh and a member of the Mathematical Physics group. I am also a member of the Edinburgh Mathematical Physics Group and the Higgs Centre for Theoretical Physics. My School of Maths homepage can be found here.

I work on general relativity and geometry inspired by string theory and holography. Much of my research focuses on black hole solutions and related geometries in these contexts, with an emphasis on their construction and classification. I have a particular interest in higher-dimensional black holes, supersymmetric black holes, extremal black holes and near-horizon geometries.

A list of my publications can be found on INSPIRE, on the arXiv and on Google Scholar.
