Kenneth M. Lanzetta
Co-Founder
Kenneth M. Lanzetta obtained a BA in Physics from the University of Pennsylvania and a PhD in Physics from the University of Pittsburgh. He subsequently held a postdoctoral appointment at the Institute of Astronomy of the University of Cambridge in England and a Hubble Fellowship at the Center for Astrophysics and Space Sciences of the University of California, San Diego before joining the faculty of Stony Brook University. He is currently Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Stony Brook University. His research interests span various disciplines of observational cosmology, including quasar absorption lines, galaxy formation and evolution, and evolution of the intergalactic medium. He is a world-recognized expert quasar absorption lines and on the development and application of image processing techniques utilizing large-scale scientific computing facilities for measurement of sensitive observations of faint galaxies.
Stefan Gromoll
Co-Founder
Stefan Gromoll obtained a BS in Physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, writing his senior thesis in particle physics on the CDF experiment at Fermilab in Chicago. He has worked as a software engineer for several software companies, including Ascend Communications and Harmonix, and has extensive experience with a variety information technologies, including programming languages, web services, database systems, and computer networks. He is currently a PhD graduate student in the Department of Physics and Astronomy of Stony Brook University. His PhD thesis topic involves optimal measurement of extremely faint galaxies in sensitive observations obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope, the Spitzer Space Telescope, and other telescopes in order to determine the comoving mass density of stars versus cosmic epoch.
