About Natalie
Natalie Roe is an experimental particle physicist and cosmologist whose career has spanned searches for new particles at colliders, studies of fundamental symmetries in rare particle decays, and large-scale surveys of the universe to study dark energy. She has led the design and construction of advanced instrumentation to enable experiments at the cutting edge of both particle physics and cosmology.
Roe received her PhD in Physics in 1989 from Stanford University and has spent her career at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, where she is currently the Associate Laboratory Director for Physical Sciences. She initiated the first mentoring program in the Physical Sciences Area, and serves as the executive sponsor for the Lab’s Early Career Employee Resource Group. She was a founding member of the Lab’s Women Scientists and Engineers Council. She has served as president of the APS Division of Particles and Fields, and on numerous national and international advisory committees.
