Mika Vesterinen
I am interested in using data from the LHCb experiment at CERN to understand quark flavour and electroweak symmetry breaking.
I am the PI of the SPEAR ERC CsG project (June 2020 - June 2025)
I am supported by an STFC Ernest Rutherford Fellowship ST/N004892/2 -- featured fellows article
I currently organise weekly EPP seminars on Thursday afternoon at 16:00 during term time.
My Ph.D thesis was on the analysis of data from the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron proton-antiproton collider.
