Senior🎓
Top SchoolMengqing Wu is an Assistant Professor at Radboud University and a seasoned experimental high-energy physicist with a decade of experience designing cutting-edge detector hardware and TDAQ systems for large collider experiments. She has led an EU Horizon 2020 effort to develop and deliver a novel silicon-sensor-based beamline telescope and now drives R&D on next-generation Trigger and Data Acquisition upgrades for ATLAS while exploring precision timing detectors. Her background spans major labs—CERN, DESY, SLAC, Nikhef—and includes convening CMSSW release validation efforts and contributing to multiple high-profile LHC analyses. She combines hands-on hardware development with software and physics analysis expertise, and she is actively recruiting and mentoring graduate students in detector physics. Based in Nijmegen, she brings a rare blend of project leadership in multinational EU collaborations and deep technical fluency in detector systems.
