Description
With a rapidly increasing catalog of detected gravitational wave (GW) events since 2015, we have developed new ways of probing fundamental aspects of gravity and matter in extreme conditions. A violation of our current understanding of fundamental physics may manifest itself in ways that are testable by GW observations of astrophysical sources. In this talk I will summarise some of the recent results from GW experiments that are most relevant to this endeavour.
