Pekka K. Sinervo, C.M.
Pekka is an experimental particle physicist who has studied quarks, gluons and vector bosons, using high-energy particle interactions. He is a professor at University of Toronto, where he has taught and pursued research since 1990.
He is known for his discovery [1] of and work on studies of the properties of the top quark (e.g., see[2] [3] [4] [5]), along with collaborators in the CDF and ATLAS experiments, as well as the discovery and study of the Higgs boson (e.g., see [6]).
He is currently working on searches for dark matter at the SNOLAB Underground Laboratory, as a member of the SuperCDMS Collaboration.
Sinervo also served as dean of the Faculty of Arts and Science at the University of Toronto from 2003 to 2008, and as senior vice-president, research at the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research from 2009 to 2015. He has been an active member of the Reform Jewish Community of Canada, serving as its president from 2017 to 2021. He currently serves in leadership roles in the Union for Reform Judaism and the World Union for Progressive Judaism.
He has been recognized in numerous ways with appointments to numerous scientific societies and being made a member of the Order of Canada in 2018.
