Raman Sundrum

Raman Sundrum (born 1964) is an Indian-American theoretical particle physicist.

He was one of two Alumni Centennial Professors in the Department of Physics and Astronomy of the Johns Hopkins University.

[4] In 2010, Sundrum left Johns Hopkins and moved to the University of Maryland.

[5] According to Scientific American,[6] he was considering leaving physics for finance, when his future collaborator Lisa Randall called to propose working together on membranes, or "branes" as they are known.

Branes are domains or swaths of several spatial dimensions within a higher-dimensional space.
