I will fully engage myself to maintain CERN's excellence in all its attributes, with the help of everybody, including CERN Council, staff and users from all over the world.
From Fabiola Gianotti
We will have to be very vigilant that young female scientists have the same opportunities as their male colleagues.
Like in nature, I like things which are based on a few simple principles, even though their manifestation can be very rich.
Diversity is really a richness for mankind.
CERN is a concrete example of worldwide, international co-operation - and a concrete example of peace. The place which makes, in my opinion, better scientists, but also better people.
Working with so many people from all over the world is extremely enriching and stimulating.
Musical harmony is based on physical principles, while in cooking, ingredients must be weighed out with precision. At the same time, you have to be able to invent because if one follows the same recipe all the time, you never create anything new.
I like manual things, doing things with my hands, the feeling of touching.
Of course, mankind has made giant steps forward. However, what we know is really very, very little compared to what we still have to know.
Art is based on very clear, mathematical principles like proportion and harmony. At the same time, physicists need to be inventive, to have ideas, to have some fantasy.
