Ludovic Van Waerbeke

Ludovic Van Waerbeke is a Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at The University of British Columbia. His research focuses on cosmology, with specific interests in dark matter, dark energy, galaxy formation, and structure formation. He also studies gravitational lensing as a tool to probe the universe's composition and evolution. Van Waerbeke has held various academic positions at UBC, including Professor since 2014. His work has been recognized with awards such as the Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel Research Award from the Humboldt Foundation in 2015 and the Peter Walls Institute for Advanced Studies Early Career Scholar award in 2010. His research integrates observational data to address fundamental questions about the universe's structure and dynamics.

Ludovic Van Waerbeke is a researcher at the University of British Columbia specializing in theoretical and observational cosmology, with a focus on dark matter, the early universe, and gravitational lensing. His work involves analyzing cosmological data from surveys such as KiDS-450, CFHTLenS, and COSMOS to constrain cosmological parameters. He has contributed significantly to weak gravitational lensing studies, including tomographic analyses and the mitigation of systematic errors in lensing measurements. His research explores the implications of cosmic shear for understanding the accelerated expansion of the universe and the growth of large-scale structures.
