I am leading the ALMA Large Program DMOST (ID:2025.1.00324.L; PI: Kurtovic, Nicolas), which aims to study the disks of young very low mass stars. We will explore the conditions for planet formation around these objects.
List of ALMA Large Programs.
As part of a guaranteed time observations program MINDS (GTO:1282; PI: Henning, Thomas), we observed tens of disks with JWST/MIRI-MRS to study the emission of their inner disks. My latest work as part of MINDS was studying the emission of the binary systems.

I am a member of the ALMA Large Program AGE-PRO (ID:2021.1.00128.L, PI: Zhang, Ke), where we explored the evolution of disk properties with a sample spanning three star forming regions. Check my paper analyzing the evolution of the dust emission. I also have a follow-up program with ALMA!

By searching for perturbations to the Gaia astrometry, we were able to propose candidate companions for a large sample of disks with cavities. I contributed with the ALMA section of the work.

As part of MINDS, we studied the inner disk emission of a binary system, DF Tau. I contributed with the line emission analysis and the ALMA comparison, we even detected the binary motion with ALMA!

PDS 111 is a large, massive, and flared disk, with conditions to continue forming planets. I contributed with analyzing the ALMA emission, pushing the boundaries of the angular resolution to resolve a multi-ringed structure.
