My research is to understand the interaction between gravity and quantum mechanics. As such it encompasses a wide range of topics-- one must understand quantum theory, in particular both what has been called the measurement problem and the process of decoherence. One must also understand gravitational theory, in particular Einstein's theory of General relativity. My own focus is on black holes and on the early universe.

我的研究是了解重力和量子力学之间的相互作用。因此，它包含了广泛的主题——人们必须理解量子理论，特别是所谓的测量问题和退相干过程。人们还必须了解引力理论，特别是爱因斯坦的广义相对论。我自己的研究重点是黑洞和早期宇宙。
