Research Summary: 

Physics beyond the standard model. Constructing extensions of the standard model and examining their consequences for terrestrial experiments such as those at the LHC, for early universe cosmology, and for high-energy astrophysics. Current specific research interests are: Particle physics models of dark matter, especially "asymmetric" dark matter; The dynamics of, and models for, baryogenesis; Theories for generating neutrino masses and mixings, especially radiative neutrino mass models and their phenomenology; New approaches to constructing technically-natural theories; Extra-dimensional models using domain-wall branes.
Awards: Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science.
