Teaching:
Currently, I am permanently based in Geneva, Switzerland. In 2010 and 2011 I helped organizing the BU Geneva physics program. The semester starts with an orientation phase of six weeks accompanied by a lecture, the LHC software course, which I pioneered and also taught during that time at CERN.
