Welcome!   I work on a wide variety of topics in astrophysics with my research group, and you can find some recent work below.   Much of my current work is focused on developing probes of fundamental physics via time-series extreme-precision measurements of dark matter.   This work is multi-disciplinary and involves researchers from the exoplanet community, compact objects and eclipsing binaries, and in traditional Galactic dynamics.  If you are a student or postdoc interested in joining our research group "Precision Lab for Dark Matter", please email me, or  find me on https://www.linkedin.com/in/sukanya-chakrabarti-98a3543/
