Our research focuses on star formation through leading global collaborations that conduct and analyze infrared and radio surveys. One such survey aims to identify nearly all young massive stars within the Milky Way. We conduct detailed follow-up observations using advanced techniques including velocity-resolved spectroscopy, infrared interferometry, and spectropolarimetry. Our team collects millimeter, submillimeter, and infrared data on molecular line emissions, which we analyze using chemical models to understand dynamic processes. Additionally, we develop multidimensional, multifluid hydromagnetic models to study the formation of Giant Molecular Clouds and their structural evolution.

Our work also examines diffuse astrophysical matter across various environments, including planetary formation discs, circumstellar discs around aging stars, powerful stellar death outflows, starburst superwinds, and galaxy clusters containing quasar-like active galactic nuclei.
