Summary
Uttiya Sarkar is a postdoctoral researcher at CERN, contributing to the CMS experiment through data analysis, detector performance, commissioning, and upgrades for the CMS detector at the LHC. He earned a PhD in Physics from the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research in Mumbai, where he searched for supersymmetry in proton-proton collisions and studied front-end choices for vector boson fusion jet isolation in the CMS Phase-2 high-granularity calorimeter. His postdoctoral work at École Polytechnique and CNRS centered on the electromagnetic calorimeter and high-granularity calorimeter performance and upgrade activities. He combines data science with software development, using the CMS software framework, Scikit-Learn, and SciPy, and has contributed to CMS service work and on-site monitoring. With experience across Tata Institute, Fermilab, École Polytechnique, CNRS, and RWTH Aachen University, he demonstrates strong international collaboration and production-level scientific software expertise. Based in the Paris region, he remains motivated by exploring the unknown and advancing the frontiers of science.
