Graham Kribs is an American theoretical particle physicist at the University of Oregon. He was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2015.

Early life and education

Graham Douglas Kribs was born in 1971, the son of Robert and Margaret Kribs.[1]

Kribs did undergraduate work at the University of Toronto, and he participated in a Fermilab high energy physics program with Drasko Jovanovic. After that summer he "was hooked on high energy physics."[2] He earned a Ph.D. at the University of Michigan in 1998.[3] His dissertation, supervised by Gordon L. Kane, was titled, Supersymmetric phenomenology, model building, and signals.[1]

Career

Kribs pursued studies at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, New Jersey, between 2003–2005, and again in 2013.[3]

Kribs joined the University of Oregon Physics faculty in 2005 and was promoted to full professor in 2015.[4] He serves there as Director of the Institute for Fundamental Science, which "enhances the experimental, theoretical, and astronomy research activities at the University of Oregon."[5] His research interests have included, "new physics, supersymmetry, extra dimensions and black holes".[2]

Selected publications

Awards, honors

  • 2015 Elected Fellow of the American Physical Society. Citation: For contributions to our understanding of physics beyond the Standard Model, in particular theories with supersymmetry and extra generations of matter.[6]
  • 2011 Ben Lee Fellow, Fermilab, "awarded to visiting theorists with outstanding achievements in particle physics".[2]
