My research focuses on hadron structure, perturbative QCD, parton distribution and fragmentation functions, machine-learning-assisted global analyses, and precision collider phenomenology, including top-quark, Higgs, electroweak, and beyond-the-Standard-Model studies at present and future facilities such as the LHC, FCC, LHeC, and EIC.
A central direction of my current research is the development of precision QCD analyses for the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), with emphasis on proton parton distribution functions, fragmentation functions, and helicity-dependent structure. This work connects present-day global fits to projected EIC measurements in order to quantify how future data can sharpen our knowledge of hadron structure, flavor separation, and QCD dynamics across a wider kinematic range.
Selected recent work in this area includes studies of projected EIC constraints on proton PDFs, pion fragmentation functions, and helicity PDFs. The papers below give a compact overview of these themes.
This work presents a global QCD analysis of proton PDFs at NLO and NNLO using high-precision DIS, Drell-Yan, and W/Z production data, and then studies how projected EIC measurements can further improve PDF determinations and the extraction of the strong coupling.
This paper quantifies how future EIC SIDIS pseudo-data can improve the extraction of parton-to-pion fragmentation functions when combined with existing SIA and SIDIS measurements, with especially notable uncertainty reductions at medium and large momentum fractions.
This study investigates how projected EIC polarized DIS and SIDIS measurements can improve helicity PDF determinations, especially for sea-quark flavor separation and the small-x behavior of polarized parton distributions, within a consistent NLO QCD framework.
Another active part of my research concerns precision phenomenology for top-quark and Higgs-boson processes, with particular emphasis on the connection between theory predictions, measurable collider observables, and future experimental opportunities at the LHC and next-generation collider facilities (FCC/LHeC).

I work broadly on QCD phenomenology, including hadron structure, parton distributions, fragmentation functions, perturbative calculations, and data-driven global analyses. A recurring goal is to build a more quantitative bridge between formal QCD theory, modern fitting methodology, and experimentally relevant observables at present and future facilities.
