An experimental high-energy and gravitational-wave physicist, he is leading the search for gravitational waves in LIGO and is involved in the Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search project, which is a long-baseline neutrino physics experiment between Fermilab and the Soudan Mine in Minnesota, as well as other major nonaccelerator experiments in both the United States and Italy. He is a former member of the 1991 Astronomy Survey Panel on Particle Astrophysics, the Briefing Panel on Scientific Frontiers and the Superconducting Super Collider for the 1986 physics survey, and the 2001 Astronomy Survey Pane]

After postdoctoral work at Tohoku University and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, he joined the physics department at the University of California at Berkeley in 1995 and was promoted to full professor by 2000. His research interests are in theoretical particle physics, specifically supersymmetry phenomenology, particle cosmology, electron-positron linear collider physics, supersymmetric field theories, and neutrino physics.
