Francois Drielsma is an experimental high-energy physicist and Associate Staff Scientist at SLAC with a decade of experience applying modern machine learning to particle-reconstruction challenges. He began by exploring nonparametric density estimation through work on non-linear muon beam phase-space and has since focused on developing ML-driven reconstruction for Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers in SBN and DUNE. His trajectory spans doctoral research at the University of Geneva to progressive scientific roles at SLAC, where he bridges rigorous experimental methods with state-of-the-art computational techniques. Based in Menlo Park, he combines deep domain knowledge of detector physics with practical ML engineering to reduce analysis bottlenecks in neutrino experiments. Notably, his background includes language study (HSK Level 5 in Chinese), suggesting a capacity for cross-cultural collaboration in international research consortia.
