Brian graduated from Stanford Univerity with a Bachelor's in Physics. He did his PhD research at Harvard University with Jerry Gabrielse, using a Penning trap to make a much-improved measurement of the electron magnetic moment; for this work, Brian received the 2006 DAMOP thesis award. For his postdoc, Brian took up dark matter research with supervisor Juan Collar at University of Chicago. Now at Northwestern, he leads an atomic and molecular trapping group.
