Introduction
Shane O'Brien
I am an incoming first-year physics graduate student at the University of Massachusetts Amherst with research interests in leveraging AI and computing power to better our understanding of fundamental physics and interactions.
This site is a collection of information about my research, publications, presentations, and teaching experience. I also have a notes page where I upload derivations and lecture notes of interest for reference.
