Edvard Musaev

I am a theoretical physicist working on aspects of T- and U-dualities in string and M-theory.

Currently I am senior researcher at Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, Laboratory of High Energy Physics. Before moving to Moscow I was a Humbold fellow at the Max-Planck Institute for gravitational physics in Potsdam (DE) and a postdoctoral researcher at Higher School of Economics, maths department. I obtained my PhD from Queen Mary University of London in 2013, under the supervision of Prof. David Berman

Apart from science my passion is photography for which I am using some Pentax gear. The photos can be found on my Flickr page.
