| Research Abstract |
String theory is the leading candidate for a unified quantum theory of all matter in the Universe and its interactions, including gravity. Previously, the majority of understanding of string dynamics beyond perturbation theory, came from highly supersymmetric configurations of string theory -- those with exactly zero (or negative) vacuum energy and an exact symmetry between particles of integer and half-integer spin. My research developed a new set of techniques and ideas to study string theory in phases with fully broken supersymmetry. Due to my work and that of my collaborators, we now have the ability to understand many non-supersymmetric regimes of string theory quantitatively, beyond the weak coupling expansion
