Prateek Gupta is a Post-doctoral researcher at Thüringer Landessternwarte (TLS) in Tautenburg, Germany since October, 2023 as a theoretical Astrophysicist. Before this he was a Senior Research Fellow at the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA) in Bangalore under the CEFIPRA project. He had a PhD from Savitribai Phule Pune University where he developed a halo-finder algorithm, MITRO (Paper Link), used to identify galaxy clusters and superclusters in both the simulated as well as the observable universe. He has been conducting research at the intersection of cosmology, astrophysics, (magneto)-hydrodynamics, and computational physics since 2015. “I firmly believe that knowledge should be shared to encourage positive societal development, rather than being kept hidden” – Prateek
