"I am very honoured and excited to be a keynote speaker at the Third Collisions Alumni event at CERN next February. I will have the opportunity to describe how my time at CERN allowed me to participate in the translation of particle physics instrumentation to medical imaging, leading eventually to the development of an imaging device now widely used in most medical centres. I hope as many CERN alumni as possible will be able to attend this exciting event."

The concept of Digital Twins, virtual copies of reality, is gaining traction, and CERN is at the forefront of utilising this technology. Discover how Digital Twins are being harnessed at CERN and the profound impact they are having on society: https://home.cern/news/news/knowledge-sharing/digital-twins-cern-and-beyond
And finally from the CERN Courier, Ivo van Vulpen explains that particle physicists have a duty to engage broader society in our adventure. But to do so effectively we need to take a more critical look at our current practices. https://cerncourier.com/a/time-for-an-upgrade/
