Marzio Nessi, leader of CERN’s Neutrino Platform project, examines how the growing scale of major scientific infrastructures is transforming the organisation of research and fostering increasingly broad international collaborations.
Using CERN’s Neutrino Platform as a reference, Nessi explains how shared infrastructures bring together physicists, engineers and technologists, optimise resources and extend scientific and technological returns on a global scale. The conference also addresses Europe’s contribution to the international neutrino research programme and the potential of these particles to investigate fundamental questions, including the nature of dark matter and the imbalance between matter and antimatter in the universe.

In 2018, the BBVA Foundation and CERN jointly organise the 4th lecture series “CERN and the BBVA Foundation: Challenges in Particle Physics”, entitled “The Technological and Globalised Dimension of Science”. The programme addresses the challenges involved in keeping particle physics research at the forefront of knowledge, from developing more powerful and precise experiments to optimising costs, reducing energy consumption and environmental impact, and promoting responsible research and innovation.
