Pauline Collard joined the Neutrinos group at IFAE as a PhD student

Pauline Collard has joined the Neutrinos Group at the Institut de Física d’Altes Energies as a new PhD student. She comes from Lyon (France), where she completed her Master’s degree at Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1.

She carried out her Master’s thesis at the Université de Genève, within the Neutrino Group, working on the commissioning of the Time-of-Flight (ToF) detector for the ND280 upgrade of the T2K experiment.

At IFAE, Pauline begins her PhD as part of the Neutrinos Team, focusing on the near detectors of both T2K and Hyper-Kamiokande, contributing to precision measurements in long-baseline neutrino physics.

Welcome Pauline!
