Vidhya Hariharan

Research Assistant at DESY

Vidhya Hariharan is a dedicated research professional with a strong background in physics and advanced computational techniques. Currently serving as a Research Assistant at DESY since December 2020, Vidhya developed a Graph Neural Network model for event reconstruction at JUNO's reference detector, TAO. Between August 2022 and January 2023, Vidhya volunteered for the World Future Council, contributing to the establishment of a global database of government action plans. Additionally, Vidhya supervised Bachelor students at the University of Hamburg during a practical course on gamma-ray spectroscopy. Vidhya's academic journey includes a PhD in Physics from the University of Hamburg, a Master's from the Central University of Karnataka, and a Bachelor's from the University of Kerala, with notable work on track reconstruction using Kalman filters and machine learning algorithms for neutrino detection during the Master's thesis. Previous experiences include summer internships focused on particle simulations and tutoring high school students in physics for national entrance exams.

DESY

Welcome to DESY! Here you will find an international and interdisciplinary working environment with more than 3000 DESYans working in a variety of occupational fields - including science, IT, economics and engineering, administration and technology. The research center DESY offers a variety of demanding scientific and non-scientific jobs with diverse career opportunities as well as a broad training program. Become part of our research world! We are growing with each passing day and we have a lot in mind. Our long-term goal is clearly defined: the decoding of matter! #KeyEnablers We are one of the world's leading accelerator centers. Researchers use the large-scale facilities at DESY to explore the microcosm in all its variety – from the interactions of tiny elementary particles and the behaviour of new types of nanomaterials to biomolecular processes that are essential to life. The accelerators and detectors that DESY develops and builds are unique research tools. The facilities generate the world’s most intense X-ray light, accelerate particles to record energies and open completely new windows onto the universe. DESY is not only an employer for more than 2,500 people, but also a magnet for more than 3,000 guest researchers from more than 40 nations every year as well as a sought-after partner in national and international cooperation. Dedicated junior researchers find an exciting, interdisciplinary environment at DESY.
