Hi there, this is Nadie. I am a PhD student in theoretical physics at Brandeis University. I am interested in a variety of theories as well as how they could be tested. My interests include quantum gravity and quantum information, condensed and soft matter theory, and biophysics.
I am also a pilot. You can find me at nadie[at]brandeis.edu |
Recent Highlights
|
Fall 2021
We are back in person. I am exploring methods and concepts in condensed matter and many body physics that can be useful for gravity theory. I am also working on my grad app along side my research on random tensor network and edge modes with my mentor Sean McBride. |
Summer 2021
Again I organize the annual UCSB Undergrad Physics Research Symposium and this time I am also a presenter. I am presenting about my work on holographic duality and random tensor network over the summer. I was also following TASI and Strings 2021 over the summer. |

Spring 2021
This quarter was hectic. I spent most of my time on Prof. Marolf's class on Quantum Gravity Path Integral and Baby Universes. And I started working with Prof. Xi Dong. |
Winter 2021
I was juror at the USIYPT this year. They had some amazing presentations that explored the chatter ring, lava lamp, impact craters, and Henry's rotor motor. |

Winter 2021
I continue to explore black hole info paradox. I am also working on materials related to QFT in curved space, in addition to continuing the effort in learning GR and QFT. Dr. Suvrat Raju's class on black hole info paradox is something I am following. |
Fall 2020
I was exploring topics in high energy astro. I wrote a term paper on accretion disk. I was also trying to start understanding the latest breakthrough in black hole information paradox. The pre-conference tutorial from Island Hopping 2020 was quite very helpful. |
