Brad Bachu

Research Scientist, Uniswap Labs

Welcome

I'm a Research Scientist at Uniswap Labs, where I work on the Protocols Research team. My research focuses on decentralized trading systems — including auction design, AMMs, liquidity provision, and execution quality.

Before joining Uniswap, I completed a PhD in theoretical physics at Princeton University. My dissertation explored scattering amplitudes in quantum field theory using on-shell techniques. I continue to bring this mindset — precise modeling and rigorous analysis — to the evolving landscape of crypto markets.

I grew up in Trinidad and Tobago, earned a double major in Physics and Mathematics at MIT, and remain passionate about applying theoretical ideas to practical systems. My work today spans data analysis, mechanism design, simulations, and protocol optimization.
