Alessandra Fantoni

The Steering Committee of EPJ is delighted to welcome Alessandra Fantoni, as the new representative of the European Physical Society.

Professor Alessandra Fantoni is a Senior Researcher at the INFN Frascati National Laboratories (LNF).

She has been involved in the HERMES experiment at DESY since its inception in 1992, initially as a PhD student working on the construction of the electromagnetic calorimeter. Her role evolved over time, and she eventually became the Run Coordinator in 2007, as well as the Technical Coordinator and Deputy Spokesperson.
After the closure of HERA, she joined the ALICE Collaboration to study nuclear collisions at the ultra-relativistic energies provided by the LHC. Within ALICE, she served as the European and EuroAsian Coordinator for EMCAL (2008-2010) and for DCAL (2010-2012), as well as the Deputy Project Leader for the electromagnetic calorimeters (2012-2022). She has also been involved in the upgrade of the Inner Tracking System (ITS2) since 2015, overseeing the construction of staves for the Outer Barrel at LNF. The new ITS2 was successfully installed in 2021 during the LHC Long Shutdown 2.
She was an elected member of the ALICE Management Board (2020-2022) and will serve as the next ALICE Collaboration Chair from July 2025 to June 2028.

Currently, she is the Chair of the European Physical Society (EPS) Nuclear Physics Division, having previously served as the Scientific Secretary (2021-2022) and Deputy Chair (2023). She is an elected member of the EPS Executive Committee since May 2023.

This was our first experience of publishing with EPJ Web of Conferences. We contacted the publisher in the middle of September, just one month prior to the Conference, but everything went through smoothly. We have had published MNPS Proceedings with different publishers in the past, and would like to tell that the EPJ Web of Conferences team was probably the best, very quick, helpful and interactive. Typically, we were getting responses from EPJ Web of Conferences team within less than an hour and have had help at every production stage.
We are very thankful to Solange Guenot, Web of Conferences Publishing Editor, and Isabelle Houlbert, Web of Conferences Production Editor, for their support. These ladies are top-level professionals, who made a great contribution to the success of this issue. We are fully satisfied with the publication of the Conference Proceedings and are looking forward to further cooperation. The publication was very fast, easy and of high quality. My colleagues and I strongly recommend EPJ Web of Conferences to anyone, who is interested in quick high-quality publication of conference proceedings.
