Professor
Celine Boehm
FAA
Professor Céline Bœhm has made landmark contributions to dark matter research, leading to a paradigm shift by demonstrating that dark matter particles could be much lighter than previously considered. Her pioneering work on light dark matter has catalysed pivotal experiments like NA64, SENSEI and DAMIC, and driven innovative searches at the Large Hadron Collider and low-energy particle physics experiments. The introduction of her simplified models framework has become a cornerstone in the field. Professor Bœhm’s influence is illustrated by her highly cited publications, including her famous paper on scalar dark matter. Her research on dark matter interactions in cosmology has sparked new avenues, using large-scale structure surveys to constrain microscopic interactions. Professor Bœhm has also demonstrated exceptional leadership by running a European Space Agency Consortium.
