American Institute of Physics (AIP) and IEEE conference proceedings should be considered perfectly reliable indicators of an academic's fields of research (which is the purpose for which they are cited). Knuth's research fields are also stated clearly on the website of his university lab, which is also referenced. Continually removing this basic information is absurd. Please desist.).

Kevin H. Knuth is an associate professor of physics at the University at Albany (SUNY). Knuth researches in fields including Information Physics,[5] Probability Theory,[6], Information Theory,[7], quantum foundations,[8] and foundations of physics.[9] He also conducts research into UAPs, otherwise known as UFOs.[10]

Education

Knuth received a Bachelor of Science in physics and mathematics from the University of Wisconsin–Oshkosh in 1988, a Master of Science in physics from Montana State University in 1990, and a PhD in physics (with a minor in mathematics) from the University of Minnesota (1995).[11]

Academic career

After receiving his doctorate, Knuth taught in the Department of Speech and Hearing Sciences of the Graduate Center, CUNY, the Departments of Otolaryngology and Neuroscience of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and the Department of Physiology and Biophysics of the Cornell University Medical Center from 1997 to 2000.[citation needed] He also worked as a researcher at the Nathan Kline Institute for Psychiatric Research from 1999 to 2001 and at NASA's Ames Research Center from 2001 to 2005.[citation needed] He became an assistant professor of physics at the University at Albany in 2005, and was promoted to associate professor in 2009.[11]

He has been editor-in-chief of the MDPI journal Entropy,[12] since 2012.[11]

UAP research

Knuth serves as vice president of UAPx, a non-profit organization that aims to conduct field research about Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP).[13] He is also a research affiliate of the The Galileo Project for the Systematic Scientific Search for Evidence of Extraterrestrial Technological Artifacts at Harvard University.[14][15] Knuth has been quoted in the media on the topic.[16][17]
