I am Professor of Physics at the Rudolph Peierls Centre for Theoretical Physics and Fellow of St John's College at the .
I work mostly on applications of string theory to strongly interacting quantum field theories at finite temperature and density. This set of applications is known as "gauge-string duality".
My operational webpage is .
