I am Laurent Smits, a postdoctoral researcher in the group of Lennart Meier at Universiteit Utrecht. Before this I did my PhD under the supervision of Gerd Laures and Björn Schuster. My research focuses on spectral algebraic geometry with an eye towards applications to (equivariant) elliptic cohomology.
Besides I also love reading fantasy novels and Manga, and listening to music (in particular Dark Trap, Medieval Rock and Deep German Hip-Hop).
