I then analyzed morphology-radio and morphology-density relations to explore whether global or local factors have a stronger influence on galaxy structure. In a separate line of investigation, throughout my studies I worked as a research assistant on a statistical study of the survival of planets around white dwarfs using numerical simulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extracurricular activities<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>In my free time I enjoy playing computer games and sudoku, watching films (especially horror and psychological thrillers), and listening to a lot of music.
