What is CERN all about
CERN, The European Organization for Nuclear Research, operates probably the most famous laboratory in the world. This Geneva-based research center is the place for 'big science', both in the researched topics and the size of local experiments. CERN scientists try to find the building blocks of the universe by using the 27 kilometers long Large Hadron Collider. It´s not an easy process and Stan Bentvelsen, the director of NIKHEF and an employee of CERN, spoke at the University of Twente yesterday to bring some insight into it.
