Using gravitational lensing and simulations to explore the small-scale behaviour of dark matter.
Using distorted images of distant galaxies to map mass and probe dark matter on small scales.
Reanalysis of the strong lens SDSS J0946+1006 showing that its apparent high-density subhalo can be naturally explained if the perturber hosts a faint satellite galaxy.
