This is the home page of Karl
Glazebrook.
I am a Professor at the Johns
Hopkins University
Physics and Astronomy Department and a Packard Foundation Fellow. I teach
undergraduate courses in introductory astrophysics. My research area is
the observational study of galaxies - studying their properties and
evolution over cosmic time. In particular
I work on the
Gemini Deep Deep Survey of very high-redshift (distant) galaxies, and the Sloan
Digital Sky Survey the largest survey of nearby galaxies yet
undertaken as well as many other things.
In my Observational Galaxy Evolution research group are Dr Ivan Baldry and Dr Sandra Savaglio and graduate students Erik Hoversten and Kuenley
Chiu. Our research has recently featured in Nature and in Science as
well as the more popular media (links: NY
Times, USA
Today, Scientific
American, Discover).
As of September 2006 Karl has left Johns Hopkins to take up a new position as a Professor in the
Centre for Astrophysics & Supercomputing at the Swinburne
University of Technology in Melbourne,
Australia. If you are interested in my research please contact me there. This web page will be re-directed shortly. Alternatively
