Biography
Vice Provost for Research, Professor- Elementary Particle Physics , Ph.D., Stanford University, Postdoctoral positions: CERN Associate Scientist, DESY Research Scientist. Won many awards and honors like APS Outstanding Referee Award , Trustees Teaching Award, Teaching Excellence Recognition Award , Joseph and Sophia Konipinski Prize. He have many publications, and on going researches under his guidance.
Research Interest
My primary research interests concentrate on the study of particles containing b quarks and searches for new particles not described by our current Standard Model, such as those predicted by Supersymmetry and the "missing link" of the Standard Model: the Higgs boson. I have pursued these studies at the highest energy electron-positron colliders in the world, and am now continuing these studies at the energy frontier of hadronic colliders.
