Cecilia E. Gerber, Ph.D. Email & Phone Number

I am a Professor of Physics at the University of Illinois Chicago. My research is centered in the experimental study of hadron collisions at the highest energies available. My work involves the development of semiconductor detectors that precisely track the passage of charged particles and the elucidation of the characteristics of the production processes of top quarks and searches for new physics that decay preferentially to top quarks. I have published more than 1000 papers in leading scientific journals and have advised a numerous graduate students and undergraduate students. I am an elected fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the American Physical Society, University of Illinois Scholar, Fellow of the UIC Honors College, and UIC 2011 Researcher of the Year. I received my PhD in Physics from the University of Buenos Aires (Argentina) in 1995, and was a research associate at Fermilab prior to joining the faculty at UIC in 2000. I am married to Daniel Elvira, a scientists at Fermilab, and we have two children.
