I am Miguel Yulo, a Filipino-Spanish student who recently concluded the MSc Astrophysics program at the University of St Andrews. I recently defended my dissertation on Kerr black hole spacetimes in Weyl Conformal Gravity under the supervision of Dr. Keith Horne and Dr. Martin Dominik. We are currently preparing a paper for submission based off these results.

​

During my time at St Andrews, I also conducted a research project on the formation of high mass stars under the supervision of Dr. Ian Bonnell.

 

I am also a graduate of the Bachelor of Science in Physics program at the National Insitute of Physics (NIP), University of the Philippines Diliman (UPD).  During my time as an undergraduate, I was a researcher in the NIP Gravity Group of Dr. Ian Vega. Here, I conducted research on applications of nonlinear dynamical systems and chaos on pulsating stars.

​

   I plan to continue pursuing a career in physics research, using and building upon the love I have for the subject. Specifically, I intend to tackle problems in gravitational physics and related fields.
