SBND, and Best Wishes to Monica!

The first coupled SBND APAs are now vertical in the D0 Assembly building!  Ohana and Monica have been involved in this work happening at Fermilab.

A Fermilab article goes into more detail, including a quote from Monica:

Speaking of Monica, as of  October she has moved to a Guest Scientist position at Fermilab. Congratulations!  We’ll miss her being a Syracuse postdoc, but are super excited that she’ll continue her work on SBND as a Fermilab scientist!

Dr. Bhat!

Shame on me for taking so long to post this, but, Congratulations to Dr. Avinay Bhat!   Avinay successfully defended his dissertation back in May, via Zoom (so no good photographs unfortunately), and told us all about his exciting work to develop tools to study MeV-scale physics in MicroBooNE.  Now he’s off to Yale for a postdoc working on neutrinoless double-beta decay.  Well done Avinay!
