Welcome to my home page. I am a theoretical physicist at the Institute of Mathematical Sciences.

I work in the field of Elementary Particles variously known as High Energy Physics, or Particle Physics that deals with the properties of the fundamental constituents of nature, and the forces that act between them.

I could give you here an 'elementary' description in lay-man terms of what Particle Physics is but there are many sites which do a far better job that I could ever hope to do. So, if you interested, here they are.
