Elham Sharifi is an Iranian-born particle physicist known for her research at CERN in Geneva. Her career is primarily focused on the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's largest particle accelerator. Her work and scientific contributions concentrate on the analysis of data from high-energy collisions, with a specific focus on studying the properties of the Higgs boson and searching for new physics phenomena beyond the Standard Model, such as dark matter and possible extra spatial dimensions. For her significant impact in the field of fundamental physics and her role as an inspiration for women in STEM, Elham Sharifi received a major international recognition: in 2023, she was included in the BBC's list of the 100 most influential and inspiring women in the world.
