Lecturer Intro
Hossein Yavartanoo is a theoretical high energy physicist and have been worked on various topics on quantum field theory, string theory, black hole physics and holographic principle. The broad questions my research aims to address is: what are the building blocks of spacetime and matter? String theory provides a potential framework to answer these questions because it can unify quantum theory with gravity in a very natural way. At present time, my main focus is studying quantum aspects of black holes.
