Matt LeBlanc is an Assistant Professor of Physics at Brown University, specializing in experimental particle physics. He completed his Ph.D. at the University of Victoria, Canada, and has held postdoctoral positions at the University of Arizona, CERN, and the University of Manchester in the UK. He is a member of the ATLAS Collaboration and joined the CMS Collaboration in 2024. His research focuses on utilizing hadronic objects in final states to extract new information about the Standard Model and to search for signs of new particles. With his extensive experience in high-energy physics, he has undertaken various leadership roles related to the reconstruction and calibration of hadronic objects at ATLAS. His contributions include differential cross-section measurements and investigations into new particles and dark matter candidates, particularly through hadronic final states. LeBlanc is also exploring the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques to enhance precision measurements at the LHC. He continues to contribute to advances in understanding quantum chromodynamics and jet formation, and has been involved in cutting-edge research with innovative silicon technologies and radiation-hard CMOS pixel sensors.
