June 9, 2022

 During the  European Physical Society (EPS) Forum, held in Paris on June 2-3, 2022.

While the short motivation of the prize talks about Sara contributions to the CMS experiment: “for her development of data analysis techniques that conclusively improved the sensitivity of the CERN-CMS experiment, thus allowing the discovery of the Higgs boson and the first measurement of its spin and parity”, it was made clear that her decision to change field and her contributions to the T2K experiment played an important role for the appointment of the award.
