Research Interests:

Gamma ray bursts, neutrino astrophysics, cosmology, cosmic rays, gravitational waves, and neutron stars.

I have an active interest in high energy, particle and gravitational astrophysics. In particular, I am involved in a major way in gamma ray burst research, where my group plays a significant role in the NASA Swift and Fermi missions. I am also a member of the IceCube Neutrino Detector team, involved in the calculation of models of the ultra-high energy cosmic ray and neutrino production in cosmic sources.
