Andrew Liam Fitzpatrick

Andrew Liam Fitzpatrick is an Associate Professor at Boston University, specializing in theoretical physics with a focus on quantum field theory and its applications to gravity. His research emphasizes effective field theories, scale-invariant systems, and dualities in quantum gravity. He holds a B.S. in Physics and Mathematics from the University of Chicago and a Ph.D. in Physics from Harvard University.

His work explores the interplay between quantum mechanics and gravity, particularly through the lens of conformal field theories and the AdS/CFT correspondence. Key topics include operator product expansions, non-unitary systems, and the behavior of small black holes.
