Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSouvik Das is an Assistant Professor and high-energy physicist with 12 years of experience translating petabyte-scale experimental data into discovery, including contributions that helped enable the Higgs boson discovery and an h-index of 155. He blends deep physics expertise with practical engineering across quantum computing, AI (spiking neural nets and evolutionary robotics), hardware (silicon detectors and carbon-fiber supports), and software—he led development of the Pixel Online Software and an online DAQ suite that earned a CERN CMS Achievement Award. As a PI and leader he has mentored large teams of undergraduates, PhD students and postdocs while spinning out applied work through a quantum-focused startup. Comfortably moving between C++/ROOT for PB-scale analyses, FPGA-friendly algorithms, and early-stage quantum annealing research, he is as fluent in building instruments as in inventing new analysis methods now used by the community.
