Leo Stein is a Professor at the University of Mississippi, working on black holes, gravitational waves, general relativity, and beyond. He is very interested in learning about general relativity from astrophysical observations.

Joey Shapiro-Key is a Professor at the University of Washington Bothell, working on gravitational wave astronomy, data analysis, and undergraduate mentorship. Her work contributes directly to major international projects including LIGO, NANOGrav, and the LISA mission.

Lia Corrales is a Professor at the University of Michigan, working on astrophysical solids and high-energy astrophysics. Her research focuses on interstellar dust, X-ray astronomy, and exoplanet atmospheres through simulations and observational techniques.

Stephen R. Taylor is a Professor at Vanderbilt University, working on gravitational-wave astrophysics. His research focuses on statistical methods for characterizing nanohertz-frequency gravitational wave backgrounds and LISA-detectable sources.

Diego Rubiera-García is a Professor of Physics at the Complutense University of Madrid, working on the nature of gravity and its phenomenology in astrophysics and cosmology.

Peter Galison is the Pellegrino University Professor of the History of Science and of Physics at Harvard University. His current research gravitates around the history and philosophy of black holes.

Keith Bonin, a Professor of Physics at Wake Forest University, specializes in optics, microscopy, and biophotonics.

Scott Hughes is a Professor of Physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, specializing in astrophysical general relativity. His research focuses particularly on black holes and gravitational wave sources.

Nico Yunes is a theoretical physicist that specializes in general relativity and gravitation. He has an international reputation for his work on tests of General Relativity with gravitational waves, universal relations in neutron stars, and black holes in theories beyond Einstein's. He is one of the creators of the parameterized post-Einsteinian framework to test Einstein's theory in a model-independent way with gravitational waves. Professor Yunes is also one of the discoverers of the the I-Love-Q and the Binary Love universal relations of neutron stars, which are used by the LIGO scientific collaboration to infer the equation of state of matter at extreme densities.

Carla Fröhlich is an astrophysicist whose research has included the neutrino p-process for nucleosynthesis in supernovae and the study of multi-messenger astronomy. She is a professor of physics and University Faculty Scholar at North Carolina State University.
