Summary
Aashaq Shah is a postdoctoral research associate at the Cavendish Laboratory, University of Cambridge, specialising in dark matter searches with the ATLAS experiment at CERN. With 11 years of experience across CERN, Fermilab, Queen Mary University of London and Cambridge, he combines deep experimental expertise in collider physics with hands-on work on large-scale detector collaborations. His background spans PhD research at CERN through visiting scientist roles at Fermilab, reflecting a strong track record in designing and analysing high-energy physics experiments. Based in Cambridge, he brings an international academic foundation from institutions across India and the UK and a practical focus on turning complex detector data into limits on new physics. An aspect that sets him apart is sustained involvement in major HEP collaborations, giving him unique experience in both hardware and analysis pipelines of ATLAS.
