Valdis Slokenbergs

<!--HTML-->Recoil uncertainty in top quark mass Valdis Slokenbergs Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore MD, USA B.S. in Physics. Minor in Mathematics, German. Anticipated Spring 2024. My experience in high energy physics has been conducted exclusively as part of the CMS experiment. I have worked since 2021 on Higgs anomalous couplings under Prof. Andrei Gritsan. This summer, however, I am part of the CMS Latvia group, working under Dr. Markus Seidel and Dr. Pedro Silva on top quark mass uncertainty. I am forward to pursuing a PhD and continue research in the world of HEP. As an aside, I find it quite fitting that I have ended up here at CERN. I grew up next to a particle physics lab in a town called Geneva, and now I am working at a different particle physics lab next to a different city also called Geneva.
