1. Modest attempt to summarize PhD thesis in 10 tweets. It presented a theoretical, observational & astrophysical perspective on black holes 
2. Thesis had 3 parts (10 Ch.): #NumericalRelativity (Einstein on supercomputers), blackhole search in #LIGO & #GravitationalWave universe👇🏻
3. #NumericalRelativity simulation gives us EXACT spacetime physics when 2 black holes collide. It takes 50k hours on fastest supercomputers
4. We provided a recipe to conduct such simulations & extract dynamics of black holes in extreme gravity (when they collide at ~speed of💡)
5. When the very first gravitational wave was recorded by LIGO, 100s of our simulations helped to prove the signal came from black holes.
6. One of the algorithm to 1st detect gravitational wave is so robust, it doesn't even need models for blackhole! We showed its applications
7. Using this algorithm, we surveyed volume of space containing 100mil galaxies to look for Goldilocks of black holes (100-10000x mass of 🌞)
