From Quantum Particle to Covid-19 .. A View from Blue Sky research

Webinar:
Blue Sky Research, From Quantum Particle to Covid-19 .. and Why You Should Care?

Speaker: Archana Sharma
Sr Scientist CERN Lab
Geneva Area, Switzerland

Imagine a life without the words www or http? They emerged one fine day from a scientific laboratory! The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN Geneva, Switzerland is home to thousands of high energy physicists. By exploiting large sophisticated radiation detectors, designed and constructed over decades, we are collectively seeking answers to questions about the origin, evolution and composition of our universe.

At this forefront of scientific pursuit, working hand in hand with industries, spin off technologies have completely changed our lives. With the world wide web, medical imaging, diagnostic and treatment techniques, high-performance computing, art restoration to name a few - the audacious, innovative cutting edge technologies of particle physics have entered and transformed mainstream society.

In this talk Archana Sharma -Sr Scientist CERN Lab,will trace her exciting adventure at CERN and how we can collectively fight pandemics and catastrophes that are unknowns like COVID19 and some known challenges like cancer.
