About Baldeep

My favourite hobbies are spending time outdoors or in the gym. Outside of school, I love to hike, swim, run, and rock climb (occasionally). If anyone ever wants to get outside and go for a hike, feel free to get in touch!

About Erzi

Ezri works on the Scintillating Bubble Chamber experiment dealing primarily with modelling and control systems for the thermodynamics and fluid dynamics of the detector. They're passionate about gender equity in physics and co-chair the gender minorities in physics group (GEMINI-P) here at Queen's. When they're not in the lab they love knitting, reading, running, and hanging out with their cat.

About Ammar

I am Ammar. I received my BSc in Electronics and Communications Engineering from Nile University in 2024, with a GPA of 3.85 (Highest Honors). I was very interested in Electromagnetics and Optics throughout my undergraduate studies. I was heavily inspired by Dr. Ahmed Mahmoud, my undergraduate advisor and supervisor. Throughout my undergraduate studies, I focused on courses related to Electromagnetics, Microwaves, Photonics, and Semiconductors. My graduation thesis, supervised by Dr. Ahmed Mahmoud, involved designing a metasurface for lensing and beam steering. Furthermore, in my last year of studies, I joined the Optical Communication and Laser Lab at Ain Shams University, under the supervision of Dr. Hussein Kotb, as a Junior Research Assistant. My research at the OCLL focused primarily on Silicon Photonics.

I was very lucky to have the opportunity to join the Shastri Lab at Queen's University. My research will focus primarily on Metamaterials, Silicon Photonics, and their application in Neuromorphic Computing. I will start my MASc studies in Fall 2024. I can't wait!

About Shane

I am a new member of the PICO collaboration, searching for Dark Matter. I was an architect for ~9 years before switching to Physics. I'm from the US, and a massive fan of the Colorado Avalanche, reading (mostly hard sci-fi), music (mostly metal), and I like to compete in sports, video games, board games, etc.
