Research Activities at CERN-Recent Advances and Future Prospects

Research Activities at CERN-Recent Advances and Future Prospects by Dr. Rudiger Voss

At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. They use the world’s largest and most complex scientific instruments to study the basic constituents of matter – the fundamental particles.

We organized a Research talk about “Research activities at CERN-Recent Advances and Future prospects” by Dr. Rudiger Voss, Head of International Relations, CERN while he was visiting Sri Lanka in September 2016. This event was held at the main lecture theater, at the department of Physics on 12/09/2016. This was a good opportunity for us to discuss and explain our students’ activities directly to the head of international relations of CERN. It was a fruitful day and both communities shared their views and students had a rare opportunity to find out higher studies program at CERN, and other research activities at CERN.
