--- type: work title: "CERN Summmer Studentship" period: 2018 location: Trinity College, Cambridge image: /assets/images/CERN_probes.png alt: "An image of some probes on a silicon wafer." layout: cv_entry read_more: true --- I worked at CERN for 3 months as a summer student, helping to design a high volume electronic measurement process for prototypes of 8 inch silicon sensors that will be used in a planned upgrade to the CMS endcap Calorimeter for the new High Luminsosity LHC upgrade. My time was split between working in a clean room on the measurement setup, analysing the data and attending a 6 week lecture course on High Energy Physics. ![An image of test probes touching a silicon wager etched with hexagons]({{"assets/images/CERN_probes.png" | absolute_url}})
