My research explores the holographic principle as a framework to uncover the quantum structure of gravitational theories. By leveraging the AdS/CFT correspondence and its extensions, I investigate how spacetime geometry emerges from non-gravitational quantum systems. Previously, I have studied quantum corrections and entanglement entropy to gain insight into quantum gravity in asymptotically (Anti-)de Sitter spacetimes. I have also worked on modified higher-spin gauge theories that aim to bridge string theory with simpler quantum field theories. Currently, my focus is on what can be learned about quantum gravity in asymptotically flat spacetimes by carefully taking flat limits of the AdS/CFT correspondence using radiative spacetimes.
