While studying physics during college in the early \u201890s, I had a punk rock band, Quas\u00edmodo Tra\u00e7a Jaguadarte, and recorded a CD, but a proposal to work at the Gran Sasso Laboratory in Italy made me switch my attention from guitars to neutrino detectors. So the wiggly river of life brought me to physics, which made me as close to the stars as an astronaut and also gave me the chance to work in super cool laboratories like in 007 movies. Now I am doing research and development for DUNE\u2019s photon detection system. It\u2019s challenging to build a cutting-edge detector made with tens of thousands of tons of liquid argon deep underground. You have to interact with an enormous number of people with different cultures and visions of life and the universe.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/div>\n<div class=\"learnmore\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fnal.gov\/pub\/science\/lbnf-dune\/index.html\">Curious about the project?
