Background Information for Dr. Eric Hintz

I have been teaching at BYU for 25 years now with a research focus on pulsating variable stars.  I currently serve as the associate chair of the Department of Physics & Astronomy, with a focus on advocating for student needs.  Recently I have been focused on the development of an array of robotic telescopes to study transiting planets, pulsating variable stars, solar system objects, and AGN variability.
