Jennifer Ngadiuba

Jennifer Ngadiuba is a particle physicist and AI expert currently working as an associate scientist at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. Her most notable work is the application of Artificial intelligence and Machine learning to address high-energy particle physics at ultrafast speeds in real-time through anomaly detection. Since 2013, she has worked with at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. She completed her bachelor's and master's degrees at the University of Milano-Bicocca where she became interested in particle physics and undertook opportunities to work with CERN through young scientist mentoring program. Since 2021, Ngadiuba has maintained the Wilson fellowship at Fermilab,

Career and research Ngadiuba’s expertise is in analyzing the large amounts of data produced by high energy particle collisions through machine learning. Her current work aims to improve the amount of data obtained from particle collisions through real-time AI inferences, in order to determine if they align with the Standard Model of particle physics. Her team has partnered with Google to minimise their computing footprint.

Personal life During the COVID-19 pandemic, Ngadiuba worked from home with her husband, also a particle physicist.
