I am a PhD student working under the supervision of Mina Doosti and Farid Shahandeh. My research focuses on the foundations of quantum theory, with particular emphasis on contextuality and nonlocality. Specifically, I investigate the relationship between different frameworks of contextuality, including the sheaf-theoretic and operational approaches, with the aim of clarifying their connections and implications for our understanding of quantum phenomena. I previously completed a Master of Physics at the University of Oxford, where I specialised in theoretical and condensed matter physics. My master’s thesis examined the Kochen–Specker theorem, focusing on small sets of projection operators that realise contextuality.
