About

Augustine Larweh Mahu is a physicist specializing in quantum physics and gauge/gravity duality. He earned his MPhil from KNUST and PhD in Theoretical Physics from the University of the Witwatersrand, supported by NRF and merit awards. He has taught and supervised at AIMS Ghana and the University of Ghana, securing a TWAS research grant to advance high-energy physics. His research explores heavy operator dynamics and black hole physics through gauge/gravity duality. He is committed to building Ghana’s quantum science community and inspiring future physicists.
