EDECS-ERC "Starting Grant" latest news

The new academic year has just begun and the pieces of my ERC-Starting Grant EDECS, officially started last April, are slowly getting together. The last part of the DELL computing server that I bought for the project has been delivered this morning. Hence, soon I will be playing with some heavy numerical stuff. Moreover, a new PhD student and the first EDECS postdoc will soon join our group in Meudon. Linda Blot is going to start her PhD working with me on clustered Dark Energy models and cosmological simulations. Linda has recently received her master degree in Astrophysics and Cosmology from the University of Bologna under the supervision of Lauro Moscardini. Shankar Agarwal is going to join us early next year as EDECS postdoc. Shankar is about to defend his PhD thesis at the University of Kansas under the supervision Hume Feldman.

We are looking forward to start some exciting EDECS science project together
