Summary

 

Summary

As part of a global effort to underpin the nature of the neutrino and dark matter, my research is focused on searching for a new type of matter called the sterile neutrino with the SoLid reactor neutrino experiment. As part of my research I also explore new analysis techniques based on machine learning for event classification and model fitting. 

I am also actively translating research into applications with the nFacet radiation detector project, a spin off of the SoLid experiment. The detector system is directed at security, radiation protection and nuclear decommissioning markets.
