BioBorn in Kansas City, Missouri and attended high school in Peculiar (Ray-Pec). Undergraduate studies at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln, the Paul Scherrer Institute, and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich). Studied ASIC design after helping characterize the PSI46 pixel chip used in the CMS detector. Graduate education at UCLA searching for Electroweak Sphalerons in proton-proton collisions with the CMS experiment while working on the muon system. Wrote BaryoGEN, a new Monte Carlo generator, to study all possible B+L violating fermion configurations potentially generated via Sphalerons and/or Instantons. Interests include front-end detector electronics, DAQ systems, gas detectors, Si detectors, non-perturbative physics (especially within the Standard Model), High-Multiplicity Electroweak Boson production, and exotic dark matter models. Currently working with the Heavy Photon Search (HPS) experiment on the Silicon Vertex Tracker (SVT) sub-system and searching dark sector models with an A' lighter than the dark matter threshold, SIMPs, and true muonium.

Jessica Yelena Breland, PhD
Clinical Associate Professor (Affiliated), Psych/General Psychiatry and Psychology (Adult)
Staff, Psych/Public Mental Health & Population SciencesBioJessica Breland, MS, PhD is a licensed psychologist and a Core Investigator at the Center for Innovation to Implementation in the VA Palo Alto Health Care System. Dr. Breland received her PhD in psychology from Rutgers and completed her clinical internship at the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, TX.
Her work focuses on using quantitative and qualitative methods to: 1) assess outcomes related to the implementation of evidenced-based treatments, especially through controlled trials in novel settings (e.g., primary care) or with novel methods (e.g., apps); 2) identify and reduce racial and ethnic disparities in health; and 3) enhance care for patients with chronic conditions, such as obesity or diabetes.
