So-Young Pi

So-Young Pi (Korean: 피서영; born 1946) is a South Korean physicist.

So-Young Pi's father was the Korean writer Pi Chun-deuk.[1] She attended Seoul National University, graduating with a degree in physics, before moving to the United States to pursue a doctorate in the subject at the State University of New York at Stony Brook.[2] Pi then completed postdoctoral research at Rockefeller University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.[3] During her postdoctoral research, Pi met and later married fellow physicist Roman Jackiw. The two had a son, violinist Stefan Jackiw.[1]

Pi taught at Boston University and was granted emeritus status upon retirement.[2] In 2014, she was elected a fellow of the American Physical Society, which recognized her "[f]or her seminal contributions to the phenomenon of density fluctuations in theories of cosmic inflation."[4]
