About the Author: Kieran Finn studied physics at Oxford University where he specialised in quantum field theory and cosmology, graduating with a first class MPhys degree in 2013. His final thesis, entitled "Using Bayesian Methods to Search for Exoplanets with Planet Hunters", was awarded the Johnson Memorial prize for best thesis in the field of astrophysics.

Kieran went on to complete the Perimeter Scholars International program at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics. During this time, he helped develop the CPT symmetric model of cosmology together with Latham Boyle and Neil Turok. This is a novel theory for the beginning of the Universe in which the Big Bang is considered to be a mirror point between two symmetric universes. This model was published in Physical Review Letters as part of the 'featured in physics' series and later appeared in several international news outlets including CNN, the BBC and New Scientist magazine.

In 2014 Kieran was awarded a Fulbright scholarship to continue his studies at New York University. Here he completed research in a diverse range of topics including supernova observations, cosmic rays, and black hole evaporation. However, quantum field theory and cosmology remained his main interests and so, in 2017, Kieran returned to the UK to complete his PhD at the University of Manchester.

Under the watchful eye of his supervisor Apostolos Pilaftsis, Kieran published six papers on the use of geometry in quantum field theory and cosmology. The resulting thesis, which was successfully defended in October 2020, is "Geometric Approaches to Quantum Field Theory".
