Biography

Research

Prof. Hostert’s research focuses on theoretical and phenomenological aspects of neutrino, dark matter, and beyond-the-Standard Model physics. One of his primary goals is to devise new strategies to search for rare phenomena and new fundamental particles. Discoveries in this field would help us to make sense of the patterns we observe in fundamental interactions and particle masses, the origin of dark matter, and the cosmological evolution of our universe.
