Well, lookie there: the #ATLAS experiment that I worked on from 2009-2022 won a share in this year's #BreakthroughPrize! Congratulations to all my colleagues who remain active on the experiment!
I am proud of my contributions to the measurement of the Highs boson's quantum numbers in 2013 and the first direct observation of its interaction with the bottom quark in 2018.
I am even prouder of my pivot to #UndergroundScience and all the discoveries yet to be made.
We are VERY excited to run the @snolabscience.bsky.social #UndergroundScience Institute #Lecture Program for its second year. Grad students and post-doctoral researchers are strongly encouraged to submit applications of interest.
Working on a SNOLAB project? Apply!
Planning to spend some time working on a SNOLAB project this summer? Apply!
Interested in potential #collaborations with SNOLAB projects? Apply!
Calling all physical science #researchers! The application process is open for the 2025 SNOLAB Underground Science Institute lecture program. Come to #SNOLAB for the summer, work on your project and/or a project at the lab, and get access to academic training and hands-on workshops. This is aimed at graduate students and postdoctoral researchers.
We will start reviewing applications soon!

@snolabscience.bsky.social So excited to see the Bluesky account go active! Folks in the #Fediverse should not be shy about following @snolabscience.bsky.social via the bridge to BSKY.
I am very excited to see the laboratory go live on new social media platforms!

Today was a wonderful day. The host site for SNOLAB, the Creighton Mine, ran its Family Day events this afternoon. Food, a tour of mine equipment, games, music … and science! SNOLAB was part of the festivities, and the lab came together to share wonder and discovery with the mothers, fathers, grandparents, and kids who were on site today.
I was grateful for the chance to help out in our […]

Had an absolutely WONDERFUL visit to the underground laboratory at #Modane today. Our hosts were so gracious in taking lots of time to discuss ideas and problems and entertain questions. I was particularly excited about discussions of open data and data standards, as well as shield design for their germanium counters.
