Dr. Liana Rauf is an OzGrav Postdoctoral Researcher at the Australian National University. Her research spans gravitational-wave and transient follow-up astronomy, as well as cosmology. She is particularly interested in using binary black hole populations and
their host galaxies to improve cosmological measurements, and in studying extreme transients that may lead to the next kilonova detection.</div>
