Rohan Naidu: From engineering dropout to probing the Universe's earliest black holes

Rohan Naidu, an astronomer from Hyderabad, is making significant contributions to our understanding of the early universe.

His recent study focuses on a cosmic dawn object that reveals a supermassive black hole enveloped by dense gas.

This important research not only sheds light on the rapid growth of early black holes but may also provide insights into the enigmatic 'little red dots' recently detected by the Webb telescope.
