My current research has centered on realizing Standard Model-like vacua within string theory. Other interest include properties of supersymmetry breaking vacua realized in string theory; the relation between dimer models, topological string theory and quiver gauge theories; spin chain integrability in AdS(5)/CFT(4); and black holes in matrix theory.
