At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. They use the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments to study the basic constituents of matter – the fundamental particles.
There are several exhibitions and public engagement spaces on the CERN campus. The CERN is inviting Ecsite conference participants to discover them in exclusive guided tours:
Tour n°1, on Wednesday 6 Jun, 08.30 - 12.00
Tour n°2, on Wednesday 6 Jun, 14.30 - 18.00
