Andreas Albrecht
Andreas J. Albrecht is a theoretical physicist cosmologist involved in research and teaching at the University of California, Davis.[1] Along with João Magueijo, Albrecht independently proposed a model of varying speed of light cosmology[2][3] to explain the horizon problem of cosmology and propose an alternative to cosmic inflation. Andreas Albrecht graduated in 1979 from Cornell University, Ithaca and was awarded a doctorate in 1983 at University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia on cosmology.[4]
He later carried out post-doctoral research at University of Texas, Austin and at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Albrecht later worked at Fermilab from 1987 to 1992 and subsequently taught at Imperial College, London from 1992 to 1998.
Albrecht is a Fellow of the American Physical Society and Fellow of the Institute of Physics (UK).[1]
