Dr. Leandro Javier Cieri (PhD in Physics 2012) is a researcher at INFN Firenze Unit with a Marie Curie--Fellini Fellowship. He is an expert on LHC phenomenology, in particular on QCD calculations at the highest perturbative accuracy. His theoretical tools constitutes the state of the art in perturbative calculations, many of them being used as reference tools by the LHC collaborations. He is editor/reviewer for diverse refereed journals. His PhD Thesis was awarded with the Giambiagi prize, "for notable contributions that allowed to calculate cross sections of various processes relevant for the discovery of the Higgs boson at the LHC". He was research associate at "La Sapienza" and the University of Zurich.
