His research focuses on precision measurements of known phenomena, and a search for the possible existence of a hidden sector of particles which could lead to an explanation of dark matter. He has previously been convener of the Fermilab Collider Detector Facility Collaboration’s Exotics Physics Group, which searches for a variety of signals for new phenomena at the Tevatron. At UMass, he has taught a range of courses including an introductory class for non-majors on Relativity and an advanced class for physics majors on Elementary Particle Physics.
