I am an Associate Professor at the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Wayne State University (one of the largest urban research Universities in the United States). I work in the field of Theoretical Physics of Elementary Particles (click here for the particular information) and teach various physics courses. My "official" university website is located here.

For those who might be interested, here is my blog. If you speak Russian, here is another.

For those interested in my CV, before coming to Wayne, I was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Laboratory for Nuclear Studies at Cornell University. Even before that, I was a Postdoctotal Fellow at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. Here is my not-so-often-updated CV .
Please take a look at my collection of Jobs in Theoretical Physics .

* Links to my research papers (from SLAC-SPIRES) can be found here .

* For those who are interested, here is my old LNS talk on charm physics and CLEO lunch talk on the physics case for tau-charm factory at CESR. Here is my talk at FCP01 conference. And finally, follow this link for the presentation that I gave at FPCP 2002 (Philadelphia), OCD 2002 (Minneapolis) and Utica 2002, as well as at CIPANP 2003 (Conference on Intersections of Particle and Nuclear Physics).
