This researcher studies possible tiny violations of two fundamental symmetries in physics: Lorentz symmetry (the idea that the laws of physics look the same regardless of direction or motion) and CPT symmetry (a deep relationship between matter and antimatter). The work builds theoretical frameworks to describe such violations and connects them to precision experiments and observations in particle physics, gravity, and cosmology.
