Rolf-Dieter Heuer

served as the Director General of the European Organization for Nuclear

Research CERN from 2009 to 2015 inclusive. Much of his career has been involved

with the construction and operation of large particle detector systems for

studying electron-positron collisions. On leaving CERN in 1998, he took up a

professorship at the University of Hamburg, where he established a group

working on preparations for experiments at a possible future electron-positron

linear collider. On taking up his appointment as research director for particle

and astroparticle physics at DESY in 2004, Heuer was responsible for research

at the HERA accelerator, DESY’s participation in the LHC and R&D for a

future electron-positron collider. Dr. Heuer studied physics at the University

of Stuttgart, then obtained his doctorate at the University of Heidelberg. From

1978 to 1983 he was a research physicist at the University of Heidelberg,

working on the PETRA electron-positron storage ring as a member of the JADE

collaboration. From 1984 to 1998 he was a staff member at CERN, working for the

OPAL collaboration at the Large Electron Positron collider (LEP). From 1994 to

1998 he was the collaboration’s spokesman. He is the recipient of numerous

awards including the Niels Bohr Medal in 2013 and an Edison Volta Prize in

2012.
