(Hertfordshire, United Kingdom): His main research interests focus on the theory and observation of galaxy evolution, particularly their chemical evolution. He is one of the main developers of the L-GALAXIES simulation, which efficiently models millions of galaxies across the full redshift range in cosmological-scale volumes. He developed the state-of-the-art chemical evolution model in L-GALAXIES, which tracks stellar evolution (including binary systems) and the ejection of 118 chemical elements from 16 different enrichment sources, as well as the production and destruction of interstellar dust. Additionally, he has developed highly precise diagnostics of abundances in the interstellar medium (ISM) based on emission-line spectra.
