Siddharth Gandhi
I am an assistant professor in the Astronomy and Astrophysics group in the Department of Physics at the University of Warwick, working on the characterisation of exoplanetary atmospheres. My research aims to answer some of the key questions in exoplanet science, such as how do planets form, how diverse are the processes in exoplanets, and how unique is our Solar System and our planet?

Research Interests
My overall research goal has been to understand the diversity of physical and chemical properties of exoplanet atmospheres. My work encompasses a range of observations from both the ground and from space, and I use these observations to characterise a range of exoplanets, from very hot close-in transiting planets to directly imaged exoplanets at large distances from their host star. This has spanned a variety of planet types from cool low mass super-Earths to hot Jupiters, with the eventual goal of studying rocky Earth-like planets in the habitable zone which have the potential for biosignatures.
