I am a professor at the Department of Physics, Faculty of mathematics and physics, 
University of Ljubljana, and a researcher at the 
Experimental particle physics department (F9), J. Stefan Institute,
Ljubljana. I spend a sizeable fraction of my time in Japan as a researcher at the 
Belle II experiment at KEK, Tsukuba, and as a visiting professor of the Kobayashi-Maskawa Institute, University of Nagoya.
 
 
My research is focused on precision flavour physics, a very interesting and hot 
part of elementary particle physics. I carry out  experiments with the Belle II  and Belle detectors at 
an electron-positron accelerator,  
investigate novel identification methods based on Cherenkov radiation, and look for their 
applications in detectors 
for medical imaging. I am the principal investigator of the  ERC Advanced grant 
FAIME  (»Flavour Anomalies with advanced particle Identification MEthods«)
-> More details on my research,  conference 
talks and publications.
 
 
I also enjoy teaching physics and talking about 
physics to general public, 
writing   blogs  and  tweeting  about my research and beyond. 
 
 
In my spare time, I cycle, hike and ski, and enjoy reading good books.
