Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolZiga Brencic is a physics PhD student at the Jozef Stefan Institute with nine years of experience in experimental and theoretical particle physics, specializing in detector simulation and software development. He has contributed to CERN projects and led simulation efforts for a Swiss student space initiative, bringing practical C++ and Python tooling experience for high-energy experiments. Trained at the University of Ljubljana and ETH Zurich in theoretical and mathematical physics, he bridges rigorous analytical foundations with hands-on computational implementation. His work focuses on vertex detector studies for the LHCb upgrade and developing simulation stacks that anticipate high-luminosity challenges. Colleagues describe him as a methodical problem-solver comfortable taking technical ownership from simulation design to prototype code. Based in Slovenia, he combines academic depth with applied engineering across research collaborations.
