Rodrigo Córdova Rosado is a final year Ph.D. candidate and Ford Foundation Pre-Doctoral Fellow in the Department of Astrophysical Sciences at Princeton University. He studies the evolution and impact of supermassive black holes on galaxy formation via observations of Active Galactic Nuclei, also known as quasars. His scholarship aims to exploit different analysis techniques to ask questions about the evolution of galaxies in the Universe, and learn more about the fundamental physical properties that underlie these processes. He was born and raised on his home island of Puerto Rico, and is an enrolled citizen of the Osage Nation. He did his undergraduate degrees in Astrophysics and Physics at Harvard University, and obtained an MPhil in Archaeology of the Americas with a focus in Archaeoastronomy at Cambridge University as a Gates Cambridge Scholar. As part of his archaeological work, he is interested in monumental architecture and the ways it may encode the way ancestral communities saw the cosmos. In particular, he has developed novel analyses of the astronomical alignments of Ancestral Puebloan structures in the American Southwest, and identified a novel set of astronomical alignments in classical Mesoamerican architecture. He works closely with the Education Department of the Osage Nation to develop scientific curricula for its K-8 language immersion education. He is the president of Native Graduate Students of Princeton, and an organizer for PAIISWG, the Princeton American Indian and Indigenous Studies Working Group.
