Asad is a California native who, through a cruel twist of fate, ended up in Minnesota. He is a postdoc in the department working on the EBEX experiment, a balloon-borne millimeter-wave telescope to study the faint afterglow of the Big Bang. When not in Tate, he can often be found playing bass guitar in one or the other of his two bands. He is widely known around the department for his amusing t-shirts.
