She continued hergraduate studies at MIT, workingon the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer experiment, which isnow searching for antimatterand a dark matter signature inspace. She attended the 2008Meeting of Nobel Laureates atLindau and initiated the contactbetween the meeting organizers and Turkey.

It requires one-on-one attention with my graduate and undergraduatestudents. It is an amazingly exciting time.What do you do for fun?I love music: I play piano, sing, and amlearning to play the accordion. The language of science, especially of physics, ismathematics. While we cannot expect thepublic to learn the language of mathematics at the level of cutting-edge science,I think it would be possible to conveythe beauty inherent in the equations ofnature–particularly of particle physics–inmusic or other art forms.Tell a surprising anecdote about yourself that few people know.I carried the Olympic Flame on July 6,2004, in Üsküdar, Istanbul, on its way toAthens. Before this experience, I used tothink such symbolism might be unnecessary in the modern world. Aren’t we all soconnected now, with phones and wirelessinternet access? Why would we need asymbolic flame carried around the world?I could not have been more wrong.TED Fellows - TEDGlobal 201117

Canthese patterns create music?What do you do for fun?I’m a UK silver medalist (2011) in coldwater swimming.

One day,one of my parents pointed out a funnybillboard and I pulled a crazy distortedface to squint at it.
