Jeffrey M. Gerber works in stellar and galactic astrophysics, focusing on determining the chemical compositions and physical properties of stars using spectroscopy and radiative transfer modeling. His recent work includes developing tools and pipelines for large stellar surveys, such as the PLATO space mission, and studying processes that create chemical elements in stars, including star clusters and small 'M-dwarf' stars observed by telescopes like K2 and TESS.
