The minimal model of Universal Extra Dimensions (MUED) is briefly reviewed.
We explain how the cross-sections for Higgs production via gluon fusion and
decay into two photons are modified, relative the the Standard Model (SM)
values, by KK particles running in loops, leading to an enhancement of the gg
to h to two photons and gg to h to W+W- cross-sections. ATLAS and CMS searches
for the SM Higgs in these channels are reinterpreted in the context of MUED and
used to place new limits on the MUED parameter space. Only a small region of
between 1 and 3 GeV around mh = 125 GeV for 500 GeV < 1/R < 1600 GeV remains
open at the 95 % confidence level.
