Brandon Kriesten

Postdoctoral Appointee

Brandon is a theoretical physicist who is interested in expanding our knowledge of QCD through the applications of machine learning and AI-augmented theory calculations.

Biography

Brandon Kriesten is a postdoctoral appointee in the high energy physics (HEP) theory group at Argonne National Laboratory.

Brandon is a theoretical physicist who explores the intricacies of non/perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) through advanced computational methods, data analysis, and machine learning. He has worked on a broad range of multi-disciplinary topics relating to the many inverse problems in hadron structure studies. His interests include applying AI-integrated techniques to HEP calculations and the use of uncertainty quantification to uncover the underlying learned QCD theory by these various algorithms.
