Sofie Ried (she/her)

Hi, I’m Sofie and I’m a PhD student in the Gravity and Cosmology group. Before I moved to Sheffield I did my Bachelors and Masters in Göttingen, Germany. Apart from research I enjoy playing Magic the Gathering or DnD with my friends, or listening to a podcast, and either doing a puzzle or knitting if I’m alone.
