27 Mar 2023, 09:00 → 31 Mar 2023, 18:00 Europe/Zurich

3179 (CERN)

OPER.ATTRACT

is a project course where, in this first round, one student team and their instructors collaborate with researchers at CERN to discover novel solutions for the future of humankind. The projects are an elaborate mixture where societal, human-driven needs meet R&D&I technologies in detection and imaging from the ATTRACT project.

Directions on how to get to CERN here: https://home.cern/directions (note, no more free bus tickets at the airport)

When on CERN site, you can find the meeting venue IdeaSquare behind the Globe, across what is now the Science Gateway parking construction site. Walk past the Globe, through a gate in the fence, turn left, and you'll find IdeaSquare.

Internet

In order to get wifi access at CERN, you will need to register each device you want to use. For that, please fill in a request here: http://cern.ch/registerVisitorComputer - and use Laura Wirtavuori as the CERN contact person (on the last page of the request form).

Registration

Please make sure to register to the event through the Registration tab in order to get your CERN access badge.
Once you have it in your mailbox, keep the activation code with you so you can print the badge at the reception upon your arrival.

Note: It is possible that small changes in the programme will be made in the meantime due to CERN personnel availability.
*Estimated number of 7 attendants
