Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavide Gerosa is an associate professor and theoretical astrophysicist with a decade of experience developing computational models for gravitational-wave sources and relativistic astrophysics. He leads the ERC-funded GWmining project at the University of Milan-Bicocca and holds concurrent appointments with the University of Birmingham, bringing international research leadership shaped by a NASA Einstein Fellowship at Caltech. His work focuses on spin precession in black-hole binaries, post-Newtonian inspirals, supermassive black-hole gas accretion, recoils, and tests of compact-object formation in alternative gravity theories. Davide combines deep analytical insight with practical code development to maximize the scientific return of current and future gravitational-wave experiments. Based in Milan, he pairs Cambridge PhD training with a track record of high-impact, computationally intensive research that bridges theory and observational prospects.
