Medford, Massachusetts, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolHugh Lawrence is a recent Tufts biology graduate now beginning PhD studies at Vanderbilt, combining hands-on molecular microbiology research with student leadership in campus mental health and Africana programming. With two decades of engagement across research labs, student media, and community organizations, he has contributed to projects ranging from bacteriophage-host interactions to antimicrobial resistance in food ecosystems. At Tufts he led peer leader coordination for the Africana Center while serving as a Mental Health Representative and managing a 10+ person video team for The Tufts Daily, showing an unusual blend of scientific rigor, community advocacy, and media production. His lab work includes independent projects dissecting phage defense and ribonucleotide reductase systems in Vibrio cholerae, signaling comfort with genetic screens and infection models. Colleagues describe him as a collaborative researcher who translates complex bench science into accessible outreach and programming.

GENIE-MC/Generator
Sep 2005 - Sep 2016
The popular GENIE Generator product is used by nearly all accelerator neutrino experiments and it plays a key role in the exploitation of neutrino data. The Generator implements a modern software framework and it includes state-of-the-art physics modules. It captures the latest results of the GENIE global analysis of neutrino scattering data and includes several tunes that were produced using the proprietary Comparisons and Tuning products. The GENIE physics model is universal and comprehensive: It handles all neutrinos and targets, and all processes relevant from MeV to PeV energy scales. The Generator includes several tools (flux drivers, detector geometry navigators, specialized event generation apps, event reweighting engines) to simulate complex experimental setups in full detail and to support generator-related analysis tasks.
