Krishnanand Karthikeyan
Welcome to my website! My name is Krishnanand and I'm excited to share my passion for physics with you. I am a PhD researcher and Graduate Research/Teaching Assistant at Virginia Tech, USA. Currently, I am working with Dr. Charles Cao in Holographic codes, quantum gravity and AdS-CFT. My journey in this field began at Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Thiruvananthapuram (IISER-TVM) where I completed my undergraduate studies with a BS MS dual degree, in Physics and pure Mathematics. I worked with Dr. Bindusar Sahoo, Associate Professor at IISER-TVM, on my master's thesis in conformal supergravity. I am particularly interested in the intersection of physics, geometry, and experiments, and I am excited to share my passion for this field with you. So, come along and join me as we discover the mysteries of the universe together!
