Dr. Sandro Tacchella, Postdoctoral researcher at Harvard

Today I talk with Dr. Sandro Tacchella, whose primary source of research is understanding the formation and evolution of galaxies over time as a Cfa fellow at the Center For Astrophysics at Harvard.
In this episode I talk to Dr. Tacchella about how his research is looking for ways to explain the structure of galaxies, as well as why they come in many different forms such as spiral and elliptical galaxies. I also talk with Dr. Tacchella about the specific research he is doing, including some of the theories that exist that try to explain the physical properties of galaxies.
