Based on the success of CERN’s first Science Pavilion at the WOMAD music festival in 2016, the project has grown to become a highly successful outreach effort known as the CERN Festival Programme.
Outreach in its original form – passionate researchers engaging directly with a wide range of the general public – remains as vivid and vital as ever in particle physics.
CERN Science Gateway caters for children as young as five. Why would CERN target such young audiences? And what CERN-related content could possibly be accessible to such an age group?
At CERN Science Gateway, the new education labs offer students and visitors to chance to conduct their own experiments.
"Collision – Stories from the Science of CERN" is a highly readable anthology built on the idea of teaming up great writers with great scientists.
Fermilab's Don Lincoln describes his dual career as a researcher and science communicator.
Martin Bauer encourages anyone who is interested in fundamental physics to read "The Biggest Ideas in the Universe: space, time, and motion" by Sean Carroll.
Science Gateway project leader Patrick Geeraert describes the origins, status and goals of CERN’s new visitor and education centre, due to open in October.
The Asia-Europe-Pacific School of High-Energy Physics (AEPSHEP) provides a unique learning experience as well as lifelong connections for early-career researchers.
