Marjorie Dale Shapiro is an American experimental particle physicist, a collaborator on the ATLAS experiment, a faculty senior scientist at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and a professor of physics at the University of California, Berkeley.
[1] Shapiro graduated magna cum laude from Harvard University in 1976, with a bachelor's degree in physics.
She completed her Ph.D. in physics at the University of California, Berkeley in 1984 with her dissertation titled: Inclusive Distributions and Two Particle Correlations in Annihilation at 29 GeV Center-of-Mass Energy.
She was promoted to professor at Berkeley in 1994, and has served as department chair from 2004 to 2007.
[2] In 1992, Shapiro was named a Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS), after a nomination from the APS Division of Particles and Fields, "for contributions to the study of high-transverse-momentum phenomena in proton-antiproton collisions".
