The CERN Council formally adopted an update to the European strategy for particle physics, noting that cross-border collaboration in science pays dividends for Europe in terms of knowledge, innovation, education and training.
UBC Mechanical Engineering students collaborated with TRIUMF's Applied Technology Group for a fourth year capstone project- a new universal modular design for target stations within the beam line from the cyclotron.
On Europe Day – a widely celebrated day in Europe- key speakers were invited to a symposium held at UBC campus to discuss Canadian and European cultural and economic ties through the lens of science and history.
Four of Canada's top undergraduate students received this year's TRIUMF Undergraduate Summer Research Awards to honour their dedication and potential in physics and engineering research.
The international editorial board of Nuclear Physics News met at TRIUMF for their biannual editorial board meeting to map out topics for future issues, tour TRIUMF and better understand its rare-isotope beam programs.
At its recent meeting, TRIUMF's Board of Management approved McGill University as an associate member of the consortium of universities that owns and operates Canada's national laboratory for particle and nuclear physics.
CERN's ISOLDE collaboration recently announced progress with analyzing the shapes of heavy, rare isotopes. TRIUMF's RadonEDM experiment will follow on the heels and is poised for dramatic progress with its Ion-Guide Laser Ion Source.
Congratulations to Eric Price and Hua Yang on their success! Their originality and competitiveness manifest as they receive top prizes for the Nuclear Medicine sector of TRIUMF.
Rare-isotope beam physics is a rapidly growing field around the world. Senior management from France's GANIL laboratory visited TRIUMF last month to discuss enhanced collaboration and partnership opportunites.
At a recent meeting of its Board of Directors, AAPS, Inc. appointed Jim Hanlon as its new CEO and President. Jim will continue as TRIUMF's Head of the Business and Administration Division.
