Associate Professor, University of Copenhagen, Niels Bohr International Academy, Denmark
Niels Emil J. Bjerrum-Bohr is a great-grandchild of Niels Bohr and an Associate Professor at the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen. He moved to Copenhagen from Institute for Advanced Study (Princeton, USA) for a Knud Højgaard Assistant Professorship at the Niels Bohr International Academy in 2009 and has since established his research in theoretical physics with grants from both Lundbeck and Carlsberg Foundations as well as the Independent Research Fund Denmark.
His research focuses on quantum amplitudes in QCD and gravity – an exciting playground for high-energy theory, phenomenology, and in the aftermath of the direct observation of binary black hole mergers, also gravitational dynamics.
