About Joey Shapiro
I have a Ph.D. in physics at Montana State University and a B.A. in Astrophysics from Williams College. I served at the Education Specialist for the Montana Space Grant Consortium (MSGC) and as the Director of Education and Outreach for the Center for Gravitational Wave Astronomy (CGWA) at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV). My research includes astrophysical parameter estimation for gravitational wave signals across the gravitational wave frequency band. I work in international gravitational wave astronomy collaborations including the Laser Interferometer Gravitational wave Observatory (LIGO), the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational waves (NANOGrav), and the NASA and European Space Agency (ESA) Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission.
