Vuk Mandić (born April 20, 1975, in Priboj, Serbia) is a Serbian-American astrophysicist and professor of physics and astronomy at the University of Minnesota.
[4] From 2004 to 2007 Mandic was supported by a Millikan Postdoctoral Fellowship at Caltech to work on the LIGO project to search for gravitational waves.
[3][5] He has chaired or co-chaired several committees for LIGO and for the Super Cryogenic Dark Matter Search.
[6] Mandic's research combines general relativity theory, astrophysics, and astronomy.
[7] His 2017 APS Fellowship citation is for "significant contributions to searches for primordial gravitational waves using LIGO data and for pioneering studies of the ultimate limits to low frequency sensitivity of ground based gravitational wave detectors".
