Research:
I am looking forward to working with motivated students
(undergrad, master, PhD). Interested by my research program ? Take a
look at this intro webpage. Still interested? Please
drop by my office or email me.
My research focuses on the study of the internal structure of protons
and neutrons. This structure is governed by the Strong force, one of
the four fundamental forces of our universe. I have studied the limits
of our understanding of these four forces by looking for Physics
beyond the Standard Model of particle physics in the precision
frontier. As an experimentalist, I measure the products of reaction
induced by high energy electrons impinging on proton or neutron
targets. I currently work with the JLab electron beam but have
experience working with the electron beam at MAMI, a facility in
Germany. I plan to work at the upcoming Electrion-Ion Collider. I am the spoke-person of three JLab experiments with scientific grading A: one completed and two on-going. Here is a short
statement of my current and future research direction. For a more complete description of my research please consult the following links:

Teaching:
I teach either in front of a class or on a one by one basis while
working with student-researcher. For a list of student-researcher
working with me and a list of opportunities to join my research group
as a student-researcher, visit our group page.
