Some of their specific fields of studies within this field is looking at dark matter, quantum fields, and the "early universe".  They have written a fascinating book called "The Disordered Cosmos" that I have read.  ]]> 2023-02-02 23:14:01 UTC https://padlet.com/rbobenri/o4dea19048hh13kt/wish/2466860407 https://padlet.com/rbobenri/o4dea19048hh13kt/wish/2467848627 Her research focused on binary star systems, specifically cataclysmic variable stars, and because of this she modeled mass accretion to understand how mass transfer between two bodies occur. Because of her groundbreaking work in her doctoral thesis she had became the first person to use the Doppler tomography to observe binary star systems as they moved in relation to the Earth, and because of this she has facilitated much of the current understanding of binary systems in modern astrophysics!

Neil    is the director of the Hayden Planetarium, but also makes many appearances on various media platforms informing viewers about his study. He has written a few books, most of which take a comedic enjoyable approach to bring astrophysics to everyday people.

She has a lab in which she focuses on nanoparticle technology, specifically the enhancement/advancement of chemotherapy drugs. Her work with multi-layer nanoparticles allow drugs to act as water molecules, effectivley shielding them from our bodies defense system. Once the particles are in a certain pH environment, they will automatically react and deploy the drug. She has also used her work in polymers and nanotechnology to develop protective clothing for the U.S. army.

He wants to be able to use tissue to repair nerves after an injury. When not working with nerves he help with a program for bringing STEM to underprivileged kids. In the future he also wants to create genetic medicines for cerebral palsy or Alzheimer's.

She was the first Black woman to get a Ph.D. in physics from Yale. She is now a Chamberlain Postdoctoral Fellow at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. She works in the sub field of neutrinos, and is especially studying neutrino oscillations and dark matter. Dr. Russell describes the prejudice she faces as one of only about 100 African American woman with physics related Ph.D.’s in the United States, and even describes multiple occasions of being mistaken for janitorial staff, an experience she shares with other black colleagues.  However, she also describes that she has worked with scientists from all around the world, and once they begin working together on the questions they are trying to gain insight into, differences fade away and they are United in their work and passion.
