      Kusp summer research student program elementary particle physics

      Took part in the KUSP research summer school, organised by IBS/CAPP in Daejeon (South Korea), for 5 weeks. During this period, I participated in a group research project on "Systematic error studies fitting simulated g-2 data", supervised by Prof. Yannis Semertzidis. In addition, I followed a series of lectures on dark matter, beam dynamics and science communication skills as well as a four-week Korean language & culture course, all provided for the summer school purposes.
