Скачать или смотреть From CERN to UEFA: the scientists who football! ⚽⚛️

Meet two incredible CERN alumni Barbara Storaci and Sarah Seif El-Nasr, who are now working at UEFA football. They began their journey unlocking the secrets of the universe at CERN — but that was just the beginning! Physics is full of possibilities, whether it's a life of research or branching out into other career paths.

🎙️ Listen to their inspiring interview by CMS' Marina Passaseo to understand their journeys from CERN to the sports sector, and how the fundamental and technical skills needed for research at CERN set them up wonderfully to chase every goal.
