Andrea Bryant

Andrea received her B.S. in Biology with a minor in Astronomy from Emory University in 2015. In 2016 she began her journey towards a PhD in Physics at the University of Chicago as a Bridge student, where she continues now as a PhD Candidate. Andrea is interested in using seismology to learn more about the interior structure of icy moons with sub-surface oceans. Along her path to and through graduate school, Andrea has worked on a variety of research topics including neuroscience, geophysics, quantum experimental cosmology, the cosmic microwave background, and modeling exoplanet evolution. In 2020 she was selected as a Student Investigator for the NASA Dragonfly mission heading to Titan, and was a 2017 GEM Fellow. In her spare time, Andrea enjoys laughing, playing guitar, working out outdoors, and eating delicious food with wonderful people. Andrea is excited to present some of her icy moon seismology work at the upcoming AAS Conference! Thanks Black in Astro!
