Anadi Canepa

Born in Italy, Canepa completed her Laurea in 2000 at the University of Padova. She directly followed her Laurea with a Ph.D. in Particle Physics at Purdue University in 2006. She began her research at Purdue with the CDF (2000-2011) collaboration. == Career ==

Canepa's research at the CDF collaboration provided improvements to the silicon trigger system and tracker in the discovery of new phenomena and the Higgs Boson at the Tevatron She joined Fermilab as a scientist in 2015 and has since held several leadership positions in the CMS collaboration. CMS is one of the two general detectors of the Large Hadron Collider located at CERN, which the collaboration leads at Fermilab. At CMS, now known as the Collider Division within the Particle Physics Directorate, Canepa was appointed as the collaboration's spokesperson in 2026. == Research ==

Anadi Canepa's research focuses on discovering new experimental particle phenomena and electroweak symmetry breaking and Higgs physics. Canepa will lead CMS in increasing particle collision rates with the High-Luminosity LHC, helping the collaboration in their pursuit of a deeper understanding of fundamentals. Her research in advanced tracking and trigger systems has contributed to particle accelerator research, along with her scientific publications. == Selected publications ==
