As a cosmologist, I am looking for additional large-scale structure probes to improve our understanding of the universe's origin and evolution. My current research focuses on the modelling and analysis of the one-point probability distribution function for galaxy clustering and weak lensing. The information content of the one-point PDF is a powerful tool for obtaining valuable information about the underlying cosmological model. I also work on modelling the galaxy bispectrum to extract information about physics during the early universe by constraining primordial non-Gaussianity. Additionally, I am interested in map-level inference using persistent homology techniques. Persistent homology allows us to study the topology of cosmic structures robustly and quantitatively and has shown strong potential in constraining primordial non-Gaussianity.
