Agnieszka Ilnicka | HiggsTools

Introduction:

I come from Warsaw, Poland. I have studied physics, chemistry and maths at the University of Warsaw and Free University (VU) Amsterdam. I graduated from theoretical chemistry and particle physics.

For my MSc project in physics I worked in the NA61/SHINE collaboration, but then moved into theoretical areas of particle physics. I've worked at the University of Warsaw and in cooperation with the Technical University Dresden on extensions of SM with additional scalar particles. Also within the Zurich node of the ITN HiggsTools I am working on the intersection of BSM and Higgs physics - using an effective field theory approach to parametrise BSM effects in Higgs boson observables.

I hope that taking part in ITN HiggsTools will give me the possibility, not only to develop my interests in particle physics and meet people with whom I may cooperate in the future, but also, due to the theoreticians and experimentalists’ cooperation, will allow me to quickly implement our findings into experimental analysis.
