Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJian Ge is a chair professor and ex-Professor at the University of Florida with over two decades of leadership in observational exoplanet surveys and precision Doppler instrumentation. He led the MARVELS project that produced the largest high-precision radial-velocity dataset to date, identifying hundreds of binaries, brown dwarf candidates and giant-planet candidates, and discovered the unusual close binary system HD 87646. He built and directed teams that developed the W.M. Keck Exoplanet Tracker and now leads the Dharma Planet Survey aiming to find nearby super-Earths in habitable zones using automated telescopes and ultra-stable optical/NIR instruments. Trained at the University of Arizona (Ph.D.) and USTC (B.S.), he combines hands-on instrument development with large survey science and a track record of translating complex engineering into major public data releases. An atypical blend of experimentalist and survey architect, he continues to bridge hardware, software and data for frontier exoplanet discovery.
