Biography

Biography

I work on the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. My current research is on Higgs physics, Monte Carlo Generators, detector simulation and construction of the new tracking detector for future high-luminosity LHC. In the recent past I have worked on top quark physics and flavour tagging.

Teaching

I lecture in Postgraduate Course: Detectors in Particle & Nuclear Physics and take about one Mphys and one MSc or summer student per year.

PhD project opportunities

Liza currently offers the following PhD project opportunities:

High energy frontier physics at ATLAS
