About Facility
Headquarter
Zachariah Etienne is an accomplished Associate Professor of Physics at the University of Idaho, with an adjunct position at West Virginia University. Specializing in Numerical Relativity and Gravitational Wave Astrophysics, Etienne's research focuses on the modeling of extreme astrophysical phenomena, such as black hole and neutron star mergers, to advance our understanding of the universe. His BlackHoles@Home project aims to revolutionize the field by reducing the cost of numerical simulations, enabling them to be run on consumer-grade computers and involving the broader community in scientific research.
With a Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Illinois and a background in Mathematics and Physics from Indiana University, Etienne's expertise is highly regarded in the field. His innovative approach to theoretical modeling has garnered recognition for its robustness and reliability, with a focus on facilitating community involvement and minimizing the learning curve for aspiring researchers. Through his open-source rewrite of the original closed-source GRMHD code, Etienne has made significant strides in democratizing access to cutting-edge research tools.
Etienne's dedication to expanding the boundaries of astrophysics research and his commitment to inclusivity in scientific exploration highlight his mission to push the boundaries of knowledge and engage a wider audience in the scientific process. With a strong presence in the academic community and a focus on collaborative research, Zachariah Etienne's work is poised to make significant contributions to the field of Numerical Relativity and Gravitational Wave Astrophysics in the years to come.
