Sumario:Astrophysical measurements show that around 85\% of the universe consists of dark matter, the origin of which is unknown. Dedicated experiments search for dark matter in the cosmos interacting directly and through annihilation. Particle colliders may also be used to search for the origin of dark matter and may provide complementary information. This paper reviews searches for dark matter performed by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN.
