DUNE
Intro
The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a leading-edge, international experiment for neutrino science. Discoveries over the past half-century have put neutrinos, the most abundant matter particles in the universe, in the spotlight for further research into several fundamental questions about the nature of matter and the evolution of the universe — questions that DUNE will seek to answer.

Representative
Kate Shaw
IPPOG Representative for DUNE, Dr Kate Shaw is an experimental particle physicist working on the DUNE experiment at Fermilab and the ATLAS experiment at CERN. Her research focuses on precision measurements in neutrino, Higgs, and top physics. She is DUNE Education and Outreach Chair and a strong advocate for inclusion and diversity in science, with a particular commitment to widening access to physics in the Global South. Shaw founded and co-directs the ICTP Physics Without Frontiers programme, which supports and trains physics and mathematics students in over 50 countries worldwide and has helped many progress to further study and research careers. She has received the European Physical Society Outreach Prize (2015), the Sussex Better World Award (2021), and the Royal Society Research Culture Award (2024).
