dc.description	Deirdre Shoemaker is as Associate Professor of Physics in the College of Sciences and the Director of the Center for Relativistic Astrophysics.
dc.description	Prof. Cadonati joined the CRA in January 2015. She was previously Associate Professor in the Physics department at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where she has been a member of the faculty since 2007. Prof. Cadonati's research interest include gravitational waves and particle astrophysics.

dc.description.abstract	Curved spacetime, relativistic time, black holes and gravitational waves are just a few topics in Einstein’s theory of gravity called Special and General Relativity. Professors Cadonati and Shoemaker will take you on a journey of gravity and how it shapes research today. The journey will highlight two of the more controversial results of Einstein’s theory, black holes and gravitational waves, which represent the most exciting challenge in modern astrophysics.	en_US
