I am Yogesh Chandra Joshi, scientist at Aryabhatta Research Institute of Observational Sciences (ARIES), Nainital, India. I have been working at ARIES since 1997, first as a Research Scholar, then as a Research Associate and now as a Scientist. I completed my PhD in the field of gravitational microlensing while I carried out research on Galactic archaeology and extrasolar planets as a PDF. I have been a permanent faculty at ARIES, Nainital since 2009 and currently hold a position of Scientist 'F' (Professor). I have published 94 peer-reviewed papers including 26 as a lead author and 26 contributed communications at national/international conferences.

I specialize in optical astronomy, with a keen focus on time domain analysis, specifically examining star clusters, extrasolar planets, and variable stars. Additionally, I am deeply intrigued by the realms of galactic archaeology and the mechanisms behind star formation within the Local Group of galaxies.
