[Eicatjlab_all_personnel] [EXTERNAL] COMMUNICATION: IR SC Magnet System Manager

[Hoffman, Caitlin]

Sent on behalf of Jim Yeck, EIC Project Director & BNL Associate Lab Director
******************************************************************************

Dear EIC Project Team,

As a follow-up to Ann Emrick's, BNL Deputy Director for Operations, announcement last month regarding the appointment of Bill Wahl as the new EIC Portfolio Manager, I am pleased to share that, effective October 1, 2025, Paolo Ferracin of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) will assume the role of IR SC Magnet System Manager.

Paolo brings more than 25 years of experience in the accelerator community, with significant contributions to both research and large-scale projects, including the LHC Accelerator Research Program (LARP) and the CERN HL-LHC Project, where he held key technical leadership positions. Over the past 18 months, he has served as a member of the EIC Magnet Steering Group (MSG), providing invaluable guidance to Bill and the broader IR SC magnet team.

While Paolo will remain an employee of LBNL for the foreseeable future, he will dedicate the majority of his time to overseeing the successful delivery of the EIC IR SC magnets, encompassing design, planning, and construction. I am pleased to note that Bill has agreed to provide ongoing support to Paolo during the transition period, ensuring a smooth handover of responsibilities.

Please join me in welcoming Paolo Ferracin to the EIC team. We look forward with confidence to his leadership and the expertise he will bring to this important endeavor.

Thank you,

Jim Yeck
EIC Project Director / BNL Associate Lab Director
