Curiculum Vitae
Research Interests:
My research interests are in the area of
Experimental Nuclear and Particle Physics.
Experiments are
conducted at Jefferson Lab and
TRIUMF.
A list of my
publications and some recent talks is available.
Our final high-precision measurement of the proton's weak charge has
been published in
Nature [Vol. 557, pages 207-211 (2018)].
An excellent perspective
for a broader scientific audience was provided by Xiaochao Zheng, in the
"News and Views" section of the same issue.
