Hi Abigail, Tell us a little about yourself and what brought you to CERN? 

Hi, I’m Abigail, I’m 23 years old and I’m from Warrington, a town in the North-West of England. I started my journey at CERN in July 2020. Before I started at CERN I was an Apprentice Engineer in the UK water treatment industry, focusing on design. I had previously visited CERN in January 2017 on a college trip but never imagined I would one day work here.  I knew of CERN and the work that is done here but always imagined staff would require university degrees and years of relevant experience.

Hello Bharti, tell us a little about yourself and what brought you to CERN?

My name is Bharti Verma and I am a chemical engineer. I have recently joined CERN as a fellow. I completed my PhD from Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, India where I worked on the application of nanotechnology in the treatment of wastewater. A part of my Ph.D. work was executed in one of the leading companies of India. 

Hi Ester, Tell us a little about yourself and what brought you to CERN? 

I found out about CERN when I was a student and I was only 20 years old, living in Valladolid, Spain.
I did not know the Organization: it was all completely new for me, and a friend told me about the Technician Training Experience (TTE) fellowship program.
I thought: this sounds really impossible and difficult for me ... but ok let’s try!
