Chanda Prescod-Weinstein

Assistant Professor in Physics and Astronomy and Core Faculty in Women's and Gender Studies, University of New Hampshire

My scientific work lives at the intersection of particle physics and astrophysics, and while I am primarily a theoretical researcher, I maintain strong ties to astronomy. I am a topical convenor for Dark Matter: Cosmic Probes in the Snowmass 2021 process, and I am lead axion wrangler for the NASA STROBE-X Probe Concept Study. I want to understand the biggest story there is: the origin and history of the universe. I am also a theorist of Black feminist science studies.
