CERN Accelerating science

From 6 until 8 October, CERN’s Knowledge Transfer group is present at SEMICON Europa 2015, the largest trade fair and conference in Europe dedicated to the Semiconductor industry. At a stand shared with the IRT NanoElec consortium (ESRF, ILL and CEA), CERN’s technologies in medical imaging (Medipix), radiation-hard electronics, Monte Carlo simulation and radiation testing are being actively promoted to over 4000 visitors.

The initiative is one of the key events under CERN’s chairmanship of the EIROforum Working Group on Innovation and Knowledge Transfer. This follows on from last year’s exhibition at the Hannover Messe where CERN’s Knowledge Transfer Group shared a stand with the European Space Agency.
