Theoretical approaches to cosmic tensions, Abstract: The Hubble and weak-lensing S8 tensions in cosmology perhaps hint at new physics beyond LCDM. I have extensively investigated these anomalies, proposing the early […]
Order from disorder: Designing sequence-programmable protein condensates, Abstract: Biology provides numerous examples of phase-separated protein and nucleic acid condensates, which establish distinct compartments for spatially organizing biomolecules within living […]
Title:Searching for neutrinoless double beta decay with CUORE and CUPID Abstract: We do not know whether neutrinos are their own antiparticle. Neutrinoless double beta (0νββ) decay is a theorized radioactive decay process […]

Black (hole) Coffee is a space for students, postdocs, and professors to discuss cutting-edge research on all things black holes, spanning both observations and theory.
ML x Astro/Cosmo meetings are geared towards discussing new methods/ideas at the intersection of machine learning and astrophysics/cosmology.
TITLE: Microgels: Heroes or Villains in Soft Matter Science? ABSTRACT: to be announced Host: Bob Leheny
"Thinking about 10 TeV pCM Colliders," Abstract: Today, we have a "Standard Model" of particle physics that is in excellent agreement with experiment. In particular, a central feature of this […]
