Dr. Sasa Prelovsek

<p>Dr. Sasa Prelovsek is an associate professor at the University of Ljubljana, Slovenia. Her hobbies include making furniture, playing piano, sewing her own clothes, running and hiking among others. She calculates masses and decay times for various conventional and exotic particles made out of quarks using ab-initio lattice QCD. This has exciting implications for ongoing experiments, which are discovering a new interesting exotic hadron every few months. During Covid, she enjoyed a walk to a nearby hill every afternoon, accompanied by her husband and at least one of three kids. &nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>My Journey as a Physicist is brought to you by PhD student <a href="https://perl.natsci.msu.edu/people/graduate-students/bryan-stanley/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Bryan Stanley</a> (he/him/his) and Prof. <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fweb.pa.msu.edu%2Fpeople%2Fhwlin%2F&amp;sa=D&amp;sntz=1&amp;usg=AFQjCNHKpswHb14HhBLArZNZxdgSumIxoA" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Huey-Wen Lin</a> (she/her).
