Professor Enrico Pajer
I'm a Professor of Theoretical Physics at DAMTP, the
University of Cambridge. My interests are in theoretical cosmology, quantum field theory, gravity and their mutual interplay.
A summary of my research can be found in the research
pages. My lecture notes for the courses I have given in the Mathematical Tripos are in the teaching
pages.
