Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolShaun Hogan is a PhD candidate and Graduate Research Assistant in experimental particle physics at Cornell University with 10 years of experience analyzing large datasets, developing C++ and Python tools, and running cluster-scale computations. He leads a team in the CMS Displaced Vertices group searching for long-lived exotic particles, and has overhauled major systematic uncertainty calculations while producing bespoke simulations for novel signal models. Shaun combines hands-on detector operations at CERN with collaborative publication work across international teams, giving him practical experience in real-time data acquisition and experimental workflows. Seeking to transition into software development or data analysis roles, he brings rigorous problem-solving, experience scaling analyses to production-like environments, and a knack for turning complex physics questions into reproducible, data-driven solutions.
