The research of Daniel Jafferis involves string theory, supersymmetric quantum field theory, and quantum gravity. String theory unifies many fundamental questions in theoretical physics, including the search for a complete description of quantum gravity...

Xi Yin's research interest lies in the fundamental aspects of string theory, and what string theory can teach us about other fields in physics and mathematics. Xi Yin's research interest lies in the fundamental aspects of string theory, and what string...

Cumrun Vafa is the Hollis Professor of Mathematicks and Natural Philosophy in the Physics Department at Harvard University, where he has done research and taught theoretical physics since 1985.  Born in Iran in 1960, he moved to the US for higher...

Howard Georgi has ongoing research programs in several areas of theoretical particle physics. The common elements in these areas are symmetries and quantum field theory. Georgi pioneered the subject of Grand Unified Theories, both without (with Sheldon...

Matthew Schwartz's research is focused on expanding the boundaries of our current understanding of particle physics. This includes both developing new theoretical techniques for precision calculations and exploring the phenomenological consequences of new...

Professor Finkbeiner was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan in 1971. He graduated from Pioneer High School in 1989, and enrolled in the College of Engineering at the University of Michigan. His Freshman year he helped build the legendary Sunrunner and was...

Matthew Reece's research centers around connecting theoretical particle physics with new experimental results. This work proceeds mostly on two fronts. One is building models that attempt to extend the Standard Model of particle physics in ways that...

Using a variety of approaches, Professor Strominger’s research has endeavored to shed light on unsolved problems including the unification of forces and particles, the origin of the universe and the quantum structure of black holes and event horizons.

Professor Lisa Randall studies theoretical particle physics and cosmology at Harvard University. Her research connects theoretical insights to puzzles in our current understanding of the properties and interactions of matter. She has developed and studied...

Prof. Dvorkin is a theoretical cosmologist. She has made significant contributions to the study of dark matter (DM), light relics, and the physics of the early universe, focusing on a broad range of observational probes, such as the Cosmic Microwave...
