He has been working since 2001 at CERN, on leave from the University of Milan, where he directed the Magnets & Superconductors for the LHC project, worth €1.7 billion, half of the machine's entire budget. He was the project leader of the HL-LHC project.NEWS, Rossi, Lucio,weblink Lessons from the accelerator frontier, 7 September 2018, CERN Courier, 24 February 2020, 7, 58, 5–6,
