      I don’t know anyone at CERN personally no, but I have met Prof Brian Cox twice who has worked at CERN!

      I do know several people, mainly from my collaboration, that are well known around CERN, but I’m not sure how famous they are to the general public; so generally I don’t know. One person you might know is my colleague Harry Cliff, he’s written lovely books on the subject of particle physics. I highly recommend them, he’s got a great way of explaining challenging topics. One of the chapters in his book Space Oddities talks about the subject of my PhD thesis!
