Titre: Hints to the discovery of the Higgs Boson... or not? Abstract: The combination of results of searches for a Standard Model Higgs boson in five decay modes (gg, bb, tt, WW, and ZZ) performed by the CMS Collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider, CERN, will be presented. The search is performed for Higgs boson masses in the range of 110–600 GeV/c2. The data correspond to an integrated total luminosity of up to 4.7 fb^{-1} of proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. Highlight will be given on the possible statistical interpretations of the result in a broad sense. by Dr Marco Cardaci.
