Research Interests

My main research interest is physics beyond the standard model (BSM). I provide a two-way communication between formal theories and experiments, making predictions that can be tested in experiments and on the other hand interpreting the new results in terms of theories.

For the past 10 years I have been concentrating on the collider phenomenology of supersymmetry and extra dimensions, neutrino mass, and other physics beyond the standard model, as well as going into the direction of dark matter and astroparticle physics.

Right now is the LHC era when many new data are pouring in. It is now the most exciting time to do collider physics. The question of the original of mass will be answered.
