This is the homepage of Dr. Roderik Overzier.

I am an astrophysicist from the Netherlands. After obtaining my PhD at Leiden Observatory and a long academic career abroad (US, Germany, and Brazil), I now work as an Earth and Space scientist at the Netherlands Organisation for Applied Research (TNO). I am also affiliated again with Leiden Observatory, where I continue my astrophysics research, mainly on black holes and cosmology.
