N. Jeremy Kasdin is an American astrophysicist pursuing research into the detection and characterization of exoplanetary systems. He is a Professor at Princeton University and Vice Dean of the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences.[1] He is a pioneer[2] of the starshade technique for suppressing starlight to enable the direct detection of Earth-like planets around nearby stars.[3][4] He is also a recognized authority on orbital dynamics and optimal estimation of physical state, and co-authored the book "Engineering Dynamics: A Comprehensive Introduction".[5] His earlier work included involvement with NASA's Terrestrial Planet Finder mission, a mission studied in the 2000s; an innovative concept for a planet-finding telescope with an unusual pupil,[6] and Gravity Probe B. Kasdin has also been involved with developing a means of tracking birds or other migratory animals anywhere in the world.[7][8]

He is currently the leader of the coronagraph science (the Adjutant Scientist) for NASA's WFIRST mission.[9] Kasdin's work on shaped pupil coronagraphy, one of the techniques being developed for WFIRST, has demonstrated high contrast imaging over a restricted field of view near a bright object such as a star.[10][11]
