Our research explores everything from the smallest particles to the largest galaxies. We study matter across extremes, from near absolute zero to the heat of the Big Bang, developing new theories, designing experiments, and applying advanced tools such as AI and machine learning.
While research drives us, it is our passion for teaching that defines us. We prepare students for diverse futures in industry, academia, healthcare, or entrepreneurship, through world-class teaching and mentorship.
