About Me


Suyog Shrestha

Suyog is an assistant professor at Washington College and research scientist on the ATLAS experiment at CERN's Large Hadron Collider. He was part of the Nobel-prize winning discovery of the long-sought Higgs Boson in 2012. The discovery has completed the Standard Model of Particle Physics, which describes the basic building blocks of matter and how they interact with each other. But at the same time, the discovery also leaves many questions unanswered, and Suyog's current research focuses on attempting to answer them. In addition to research, Suyog enjoys teaching and mentoring students, forging interdisciplinary and international scientific partnerships, and increasing public awareness of the importance of basic science, all of which this website aims to showcase.
