Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolEric Metodiev is a Ph.D. candidate in theoretical physics at MIT with nine years of research experience at the intersection of particle physics, mathematics, and machine learning, developing data-driven techniques for collider physics informed by quantum field theory. He has a strong experimental and computational background from roles at Brookhaven, KAIST, and the Institute for Quantum Computing, and practical finance exposure from a Jane Street trading internship. A gifted educator, he earned the Derek C. Bok Award for teaching while serving as a Harvard teaching fellow. His work spans precision instrumentation, quantum cryptography algorithms, and statistical modeling, reflecting an uncommon blend of theoretical insight and hands-on experimental design. Based in the New York City area, he brings a rare cross-disciplinary perspective that translates deep physics concepts into novel ML-driven tools for high-energy experiments.
