Mariem Magdy's homepage

I am currently a Fields-AIMS-Perimeter postdoctoral Fellow at Perimeter Institute in Waterloo, Canada.

Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Centre for Mathematical Analysis, Geometry and Dynamical Systems (CAMGSD) at Instituto Superior Técnico (IST) in Portugal and a Junior Research Fellow at the Erwin Schrödinger Institute for Mathematics and Physics during May and June, 2024.

I successfully defended my PhD at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) in 2023 and am grateful to have worked under the supervision of Juan Valiente-Kroon and Mahdi Godazgar. Before that, I completed my MSc in Physics with extended research at Imperial College London.

My research is within the domain of mathematical General Relativity (GR). In particular, during my PhD, I mainly used conformal methods to study the asymptotic structure and charges near spatial infinity.
