Yashar Hezaveh is a Iranian Canadian astrophysiyst gravitational lensing scientist. He studies at Mc.Gill University and now he is working at Stanford University [Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology at Stanford University]. His research is primarily centered on strong gravitational lensing of high redshift, dusty galaxies, with a special focus on mapping the detailed distribution of dark matter on small scales in lensing halos. Understanding the small scale distribution of dark matter can give us invaluable clues to the nature of dark matter.

He and his team recently discovered a new Dwarf Dark Galaxy which was published in Science Magazine and ScienceDaily.
