In this episode, I sit down with Hannes Gamper, a robotics engineer at CERN, to explore the cutting-edge world of scientific and engineering innovations at one of the most prestigious research centers in the world. Our conversation begins with an overview of CERN's groundbreaking discoveries, including the creation of the World Wide Web, and how these innovations have shaped our modern world.

We delve into the funding mechanisms behind CERN, discussing how it operates and what its priorities are now and for the future. Hannes provides fascinating insights into the Large Hadron Collider, explaining its purpose, how it can send particles at near light speed, and why conducting these high-energy experiments is crucial for advancing our understanding of the universe.

Our discussion also covers the advanced engineering technologies and robotics used at CERN, and the machinery and techniques that make these experiments possible. Finally, we look ahead to what the future holds for robotics and engineering at CERN and the exciting possibilities that lie ahead.
