    Dr. Joseph Bramante is an Assistant Professor at ֱ in the Department of Physics, Engineering Physics and Astronomy. He is also a Visiting Fellow at the Perimeter Institute and a member of the new, Arthur B. McDonald Canadian Astroparticle Physics Research Institute at Queen’s. His research focuses on constructing theories that describe fundamental physics and finding new ways for humans to test those theories.

    He held post-doctoral fellowships at the Perimeter Institute and the University of Notre Dame, and received his doctorate from the University of Hawaii for work on “Dark Particles and Primordial Perturbations.”

    In this episode, he discusses the McDonald Institute’s network of researchers and students whose central aim is to make new discoveries and advance the frontier of knowledge related to astroparticle physics. Dr. Bramante also explains how his research on fundamental theories of dark matter has progressed through experimentation at SNOLAB.
