Joshua Frieman
Professor of Particle Physics and Astrophysics and, by courtesy, of Physics
BioI carry out theoretical and observational research in cosmology on topics including dark energy, dark matter, and inflation, using tools such as large-scale structure, gravitational lensing, and supernovae, with increasing focus on the application of machine learning to the analysis of cosmic surveys. Cosmology is akin to archaeology on the grand scale: as an archaeologist uses pottery shards to reconstruct an ancient civilization and how it evolved, cosmologists use both small- and large-scale data to reconstruct the origin and evolution of the universe and to probe fundamental physics.

Alan R. Fry
Senior Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioAlan Fry is the Director of the Matter in Extreme Conditions Petawatt Upgrade (MEC-U), a major new FES facility at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory that brings the most powerful optical lasers together with the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) X-ray laser to enable transformational research in high-energy density plasma science. Earlier at SLAC he was the Division Director for Laser Science and Technology at LCLS, where he led the development of ultrafast optical laser systems for the LCLS user program and accelerator facility operations. Before joining SLAC, Alan worked in private industry leading the development of ultrafast lasers for scientific research.
