We recently held our second big event this year - and our biggest one to date! We welcomed several interesting speakers, one of which was dr. Steven Goldfarb. Steven is a particle physicist working on the ATLAS experiment in CERN and ATLAS’s Outreach and Communication Coordinator. As such, he has been overseeing the worldwide communication of the Higgs boson discovery of 2012 and speaks at major popular science events basically everywhere.

At our event, he spoke about the work at the LHC and such sexy topics as dark matter and dark energy - you know, those 95% of our Universe we basically know nothing about. In the interview, we go to a bunch of crazy places such as fake news, politics, how to communicate science, how science is perceived by society.. oh, and obviously there’s a bunch of Trump, as well. Listen in!
