Claire Lee
Claire is a South African particle physicist working for the U.S. Department of Energy's Fermilab, studying the basic particles and forces that make up our universe. She completed her PhD on the ATLAS Experiment, one of the large multipurpose experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research), in Geneva Switzerland.
She is now a member of the CMS Collaboration, working on the day-to-day operation of the CMS detector, as well as on the communications teams for CMS and Fermilab.
She is an experienced public speaker and has been invited to speak at places such as the UNESCO Headquarters in Paris and the UN offices in Geneva, and at events such as TEDx and New Scientist Live. She was diagnosed with ADHD in 2022, and has been amazed at how much more sense the universe makes, ever since.
Bugra Bilin
Bugra is a physicist, he has been working in CMS since 2010, where his journey started as a master student from METU Ankara. He then finished his PhD in the same institute in 2017, working on precision measurements of vector bosons as well as top quark pairs. Currently he is working as a CERN Fellow, mainly concentrating on the tests of state-of-the-art modules for the new CMS silicon inner tracker detectors and analysis of Higgs bosons decaying into light quarks with CMS Run-II data. He also co-coordinates the Physics Data and MC generation group mainly responsible for the Monte-Carlo event generation and simulation of the CMS detector for both Run-II as well as current Run-III collisions, which is crucial to get the most out of these data. He also takes various roles in the central shift crew (DAQ shifter, shift leader, Run Field Manager) operating CMS during data taking.
