Vishvas Pandey
Speaking at:
Vishvas Pandey is a Wilson Fellow Associate Scientist at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. His research lies at the intersection of particle and nuclear physics, combining experimental and theoretical approaches to advance our understanding of neutrino interactions with matter and to explore new physics beyond the Standard Model. At Fermilab, his primary focus is on maximizing the scientific output of liquid argon–based neutrino experiments, including the SBND experiment, where he serves as co-convener of a physics working group, and DUNE. He also coordinates the Neutrino Physics Center, co-leads the DOE SULI program at Fermilab, and serves on the board of the NuSTEC collaboration. Prior to joining Fermilab in 2022, he was a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Florida (2019–2022), contributing to SBND and the CCM experiment. During his earlier postdoctoral tenure at the Center for Neutrino Physics at Virginia Tech (2016–2019), he played key roles in the JLab Hall A electron–argon scattering experiment and was involved in the protoDUNE and MicroBooNE experiments. He earned his Ph.D. in Physics from Ghent University, Belgium, in 2016, focusing on modeling neutrino–nucleus interactions for accelerator-based neutrino experiments.
