Here it is, in pictures. 🙂 As for the first day, Jim Quanci, my long-time friend and former boss, acted as Master of Ceremonies.

The videos from the TEDxCERN event I attended in late September are now online. As I'm busy working on my AU 2014 presentations, here's a selection of the ones I think will be of most interest to this audience. You can always go through the full playlist on YouTube, of course: they are all worth […]
