Visitors & Fellows - eXtreme Gravity Institute (XGI) | Montana State University

The XGI strongly encourages an environment of friendly exchange and collaboration. For this reason, XGI Visiting Fellows are elected every 2-3 years. Fellows visit the XGI once a year for anywhere from a few days to three weeks. The goal of the visits is to increase interactions between XGI members and external visitors. The Fellows are also invited to participate in the international workshops the XGI organizes biennially and to lecture at the summer schools, also organized biennially. Below is a list of current fellows. In addition to fellows, the XGI typically hosts visitors, including graduate students and postdoctoral researchers. If you are interested in visiting, please contact us at EMAIL.
