The LHC Physics Center (LPC) at Fermilab is a regional center of the [[Compact Muon Solenoid]] Collaboration (the experiment is housed at [[CERN]]). The LPC offers a vibrant community of CMS scientists from the US and plays a major role in the CMS detector commissioning, and in the design and development of the detector upgrade.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://lpc.fnal.gov/|title=LHC Physics Center |website=lpc.fnal.gov |access-date=November 12, 2019 }}</ref> Fermilab is the host laboratory for USCMS,<ref>{{cite web | title=USCMS web page |url=https://uscms.org}}</ref> which includes researchers from 50 U.S. universities including 715 students. Fermilab hosts the largest CMS Tier 1 computing center, handling approximately 40% of global CMS Tier 1 computing requests. On February 9, 2022, Fermilab's [[Patricia McBride (physicist)]] was elected spokesperson of the CMS collaboration.<ref>{{cite web | title=Fermilab's Patty McBride elected next CMS spokesperson | date=March 3, 2022| url=https://news.fnal.gov/2022/03/fermilabs-patty-mcbride-elected-next-cms-spokesperson/}}</ref> During this time-frame, the laboratory also established a new program in research in cutting-edge information science, including the development of quantum teleportation technology<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Valivarthi, Raju |display-authors=etal |title=Teleportation Systems Toward a Quantum Internet |journal=PRX Quantum |year=2020 |volume=1 |issue=2 |page=020317 |doi=10.1103/PRXQuantum.1.020317 |arxiv=2007.11157|bibcode=2020PRXQ....1b0317V |s2cid=220686903 }}</ref> for the quantum internet and increasing the lifetime of superconducting resonators<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Romanenko, A |display-authors=etal |title=Three-Dimensional Superconducting Resonators at T < 20 mK with Photon Lifetimes up to Ο = 2 s |journal=Physical Review Applied |date=March 2020 |volume=13 |issue=3 |page=034032 |doi=10.1103/PhysRevApplied.13.034032 |arxiv=1810.03703 |bibcode=2020PhRvP..13c4032R |doi-access=free}}</ref> for use in quantum computers.
