Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Winn is a Paris-based researcher with a decade of experience probing the structure and dynamics of hadrons and quark-gluon plasma through experiment, phenomenology, and simulation. Embedded in ALICE and LHCb collaborations, he has led key quarkonium and heavy-flavour measurements, developed muon-arm software, and shaped heavy-ion physics strategy including LHC upgrade studies. His work spans detector integration, analysis software, and theoretical modeling—linking initial-state gluon saturation, pre-equilibrium dynamics, and hadronisation with novel observables for thermalisation. He also co-leads a flagship gluodynamics project and serves in early-career and diversity leadership roles, reflecting a commitment to community-building as well as science. An AvP-trained physicist with roots in gamma-ray astrophysics, he brings cross-domain experimental insight to collider heavy-ion phenomenology.
