The Mission of CERN
Push forward the frontiers of knowledge
E.g. the secrets of the Big Bang …what was the matter like
within the first moments of the Universe’s existence?
Develop new technologies for accelerators and detectors
Information technology - the Web and the GRID
Medicine - diagnosis and therapy
Train scientists and engineers of tomorrow
Unite people from different countries and cultures

Science is a universal language
Science is global, ‘learning through collaboration’
Without basic science there is no science to apply
Bring back Science into Society
Reach out to children from the earliest possible age
: Accelerating Science and Innovation
in an international, collaborative, open way
