A few weeks ago, my NDSR cohort & I had the great opportunity to present our paper at iPres 2016 in Bern, Switzerland! XYZ.

The last day I was in Switzerland, I took a 2 hour train ride down to Geneva where James Beacham, a former phD student at NYU and now postdoc at CERN, gave me an insanely awesome, half-official, half-unofficial tour of The European Organization for Nuclear Research, A.K.A. CERN.

James had gotten me on a waitlist for an

official guided tour at 13h. Since they had some cancellations, I was lucky enough to join!
