HELLO, I'M
Bhavesh Rajpoot

I am a M.Sc. student at the Department of Physics and Astronomy, Universität Heidelberg, Germany, and a Research Assistant at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy in Heidelberg. 

​

As a graduate student, my research interests continually evolve through my academic journey, and I find myself particularly enthusiastic about the ongoing developments in galaxy evolution, exoplanet detection and characterisation, astronomical instrumentation, and astronomical machine learning. For more details, please check out my Research page!

​

Talking about astronomy and scientific thinking has been a recently discovered strength, and therefore, I never leave an opportunity to encourage young aspiring students to pursue this field. I also share compiled lists of various sources on my Resources page, to help their pursuit of becoming an astronomer.

​

Under the Stargazer initiative, my team counsels students about becoming an astronomer/astrophysicist, about various graduate study opportunities in the US and Europe, and taking astronomy and stargazing sessions.  For more information regarding this, please head to this page.

Apart from this, I am an avid biker and photographer, and I love to cook!
