<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Our physics interests are geared to the three-dimensional imaging of nucleons and nuclei through the study of deeply virtual exclusive reactions. With this goal, we are pursuing an R&D
program in high resolution electromagnetic (EM) calorimetry towards the construction of the backward endcap EM calorimeter of the EIC detector. This calorimeter will be based on a combination of scintillating crystals and high resolution glass currently under
development. In addition, we are interested in the detection of very forward scattered particles in the Roman Pots (RP) in the hadron-going far-forward region. The RP are planned to use the AC-LGAD technology and we intend to contribute to the development
of a readout ASIC for them.</span><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
