CERN Alumni Weekly News | Patrick Glauner’s talk, Transmutex Company Showroom, Moving Out of Academia to Data Science and Analytics, New optical fibre link between CERN and Paris

Published on February 24, 2025

To mark one year since Third Collisions, we’re resharing all the panel talks. Starting with Professor Patrick Glauner’s insightful keynote, where he demystified AI—reflecting on its evolution, current impact, and future potential. Make sure you revisit his thought-provoking talk: https://alumni.cern/media_center/file/c6443829-5787-4dbb-ac00-2456811613df

On 7 March, join us for a Virtual Company Showroom (in hybrid format) featuring Transmutex, a Geneva-based company revolutionising clean energy and nuclear waste reduction. Discover their cutting-edge technology, explore career opportunities, and engage in a live Q&A with company representatives: https://alumni.cern/events/172868

Thinking about a career in Data Science & Analytics? Join us for the next Moving Out of Academia event on 14 March to hear how CERN alumni successfully made the leap. Our panellists will share insights on their work, the skills that helped (or didn’t), and practical advice for making the transition: https://alumni.cern/events/169947

A new optical fibre link between CERN and Paris will provide the Laboratory with an accurate frequency reference, enhancing precision and supporting experiments like ALPHA in their search for matter–antimatter differences: https://home.web.cern.ch/news/news/experiments/optical-fibre-link-make-cern-more-time-ever

Neutrinos are everywhere—billions pass through you every second—but they hardly ever interact. Why? Symmetry Magazine breaks it down, explaining how these elusive particles, nearly massless and electrically neutral, barely feel the forces that govern other matter: https://www.symmetrymagazine.org/article/why-do-neutrinos-rarely-interact?language_content_entity=und
