Emmanuel Tsesmelis (CERN), Evangelos Gazis (National Technical Univ. of Athens (GR)), Jeff Wiener (CERN)

This Greek Teacher Programme 2017 will take place from 30 August - 2 September 2017. Lectures, on-site visits, exhibitions, and hands-on workshops will introduce its participants to cutting-edge particle physics. We hope our participants will go back to Greece as ambassadors, who pass on the subject to our next generation of physicists, engineers, IT specialists ...
