Paolo Giubellino, (born 9 November 1960) is an experimental particle physicist working on High-Energy Nuclear Collisions. Currently he is the joint Scientific Managing Director of the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research in Europe GmbH (FAIR GmbH) and the GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung GmbH. The accelerator facility FAIR, which will be constructed at GSI, is one of the largest research projects worldwide. Until 31 December 2016 Giubellino was the Spokesperson of the ALICE: A Large Ion Collider Experiment Collaboration, an international collaboration of more than 1300 people from 163 scientific institutions from 40 countries. He has carried several responsibility positions in the ALICE Collaboration since its creation in the early nineties, to be eventually elected deputy spokesperson from 2004 to 2010 and spokesperson since 1 January 2011. On July 17, 2013, he was elected with a very large majority for a second term as spokesperson of the Collaboration.

Giubellino has dedicated most of his scientific life to the Physics of High-Energy Heavy-Ion collisions, in which Quark–gluon plasma a state of ultra- dense and hot matter like the one prevailing in the first microseconds of life of our Universe is created. Moreover, he has participated in numerous experimental projects first at the CERN SPS and, since the beginning of the program, at the Large Hadron Collider.

Paolo Giubellino, Italian, born in 1960, graduated in Physics at the University of Torino in 1983 with 110/110 cum laude and special honorable mention and continued his studies as a Fulbright fellow at the University of California, Santa Cruz. In 2000 he was awarded the title of Doctor in Physics and Mathematics (Habilitation) by the Dubna Academic Council (Russia). He is married and has one son.
