BRIEF BIO
Dr. Hakeem M. Oluseyi is an astrophysicist,
educator, and inventor. He received his B.S. degrees in Math and
in Physics from Tougaloo College and M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in
Physics from Stanford University. His post-doctoral work was performed
at Applied Materials, Inc. and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
He is currently an Assistant Professor of Physics at the University
of Alabama in Huntsville and an Astrophysicist at NASA Marshall
Space Flight Center.
Dr. Oluseyi's research has focused on the development
of instrumentation for space-based astronomical observation including
optics, detectors, and electronics, and on the analysis of terrestrial
and astronomical plasmas including semiconductor manufacturing
plasmas, solar/stellar atmospheres and supernovae. He is the author
or co-author of over 40 scientific publications, holds eight patents,
and has received several fellowships, honors and awards.
As an educator Dr. Oluseyi has taught a diversity
of students from Stanford University, Foothill College, Kaplan
Test Prep Center, and the University of Alabama. He has supervised
the research activities of eleven students, six of whom were women
and seven of whom were from underrepresented minority groups.
Dr. Oluseyi has also traveled regularly to South and East Africa
as a member of Cosmos Education to teach K-12 students as well
as to train young educators. At home, Dr. Oluseyi is equally committed
to educational and public outreach. He is a sought after scientific
and motivational speaker and regularly makes appearances around
the country to professional, student, and lay audiences.
Currently, Dr. Oluseyi is a member of the SuperNova/Acceleration
Probe (SNAP) science team. SNAP is a proposed 2-meter space telescope
designed to map out the expansion history of the universe utilizing
Type Ia supernovae as standard candles, and elucidate the nature
of the dark energy that accelerates the universe's expansion.
Dr. Oluseyi is currently developing visible and near infrared
CCD detectors that are designed for deployment on SNAP. His recent
research has focused on taking the detector program from a research
mode to the delivery of precision robust reliable devices. This
work has recently resulted in the deployment of the novel CCD
technology as a detector in the SuperNova Intergral Field Spectrograph
(SNIFS), a part of the Nearby Supernova Factory. Additionally,
Dr. Oluseyi is also studying the atmospheres of the Sun and sun-like
stars.
