My name is Albert Countryman and I'm a Junior majoring in Physics! My primary interests within the discipline mostly pertain to the fields of plasma physics, rocketry, and biophysics. I've previously worked in a biophysics lab studying Metachronal Waves in cell cilia, and am currently working with an intercollegiate team at Olin College of Engineering to construct and fire a Hall-Effect Thruster. Outside of physics, I love to draw and animate!

Hi, my name is Sam Kelson, and I am a junior majoring in Physics with minors in Computer Science, Math, and Music. My interests lie in experimental particle, nuclear, and plasma physics. Currently, I am doing research in High-Energy Physics under Aram Apyan. I am currently studying the polarizations of W boson pairs to unveil the secrets of the Higgs boson. Outside of class and research, I play guitar, and I am a captain of the Brandeis climbing team. I also enjoy hanging out with friends and helping others. Please feel free to contact me if there is anything I can help you with.
