About

John Forbes is an Assistant Professor at the University of Canterbury, New Zealand. His research areas include interstellar objects, star formation, and the dynamics of galaxies, with a focus on their interactions and theoretical modeling. He has contributed significantly to the understanding of the Ōtautahi–Oxford Interstellar Object Population and the behavior of axion minihalos within the Milky Way.
