"The main goal of our experiment is to study the difference between matter and anti-matter but also to look for signs of what we call physics beyond the Standard Model."

"I arrived in France in 1999 to start medicine."

"I finally found a place to stay, I was already lagging."

"The Standard Model is today somehow the best description that we have of the fundamentals laws of nature."

"I liked particle physics, I liked the idea to reveal secrets of the world."

"During my junior year of college at Purdue, Pete Kraemer, an alum, spoke to my chemical engineering seminar class about Anheuser-Busch and opportunities for engineers. During my senior year, I decided to put in my resume and never looked back."

"Now, I’m always thinking of food and flavors from a brewing perspective, especially when I go out to eat. It really speaks to my scientific interests in chemistry and biology while also involving a lot of creativity."

"I manage the development of new products, a joint effort between the brewing, research and innovation teams. Part of my job is to take concepts and transfer them into a brewing recipe. I also coordinate test brewing in our Research Pilot Brewery."

"“Seeing the success that they’ve had “I can bring it back and be like, ‘We’re on the right track. We’re doing the right things. Let’s just not let it slide.’”"

"I’m out there in the community I’m out there in the state. I’m out there in the country. I’m out there in the world, talking about our amazing community and how it’s a fantastic place to live."

"People have a perception that brewers are all guys with beards and are surprised when they see me, an African-American female."

"I was able to help put Columbia on the map. ... People talk about Missouri being a flyover state. So when they think about climate research reactors, they think about Boston, and Minnesota and the California coast And yet ... we have this amazing resource here."

"It really helped me put in perspective that we’re part of a larger global community. And we need to be thinking about the decisions we are making because they impact Columbia, but they also have a role to play with our neighbors across state lines and oceans."

"“I’m really thankful that I have professional city staff who run the day-to-day, whether I’m in town or not"

"I tell them that I am a brewer, and that the brewing process is really rooted in science. There is so much you can do with a STEM degree."

"It’s kind of nice to be with your peers and find out that you’re all dealing with a lot of the same issues,It doesn’t matter what city or state you’re in — blue, red ... whatever. They’re all just trying to think about community safety and housing and just people’s mental health."

"So I could be ready for the challenge and step up to the plate or I could shy away from it. I stepped up. The takeaway from that experience for me was that challenges are going to arise whether you are ready for them or not. So, you have to have faith in your abilities. You just might surprise yourself."

"The Run 3 of the LHC is also starting now, so the next coming months will be very challenging and exciting for me and for all our community."

"I have been elected Physics Coordinator of the LHCb experiment, my two-year mandate starts on August 1rst, 2022."

"Particle physics is a discipline that requires a very diverse set of skills, there is room for people with many interests."

"Some may prefer detectors building, data processing, data analysis, machine learning, phenomenology and/or collaboration with theorists."

"What we bring to society is subtle, there is really an urge to continue to understand fundamental concepts of nature."

"One of the primary roles of this experiment is to study the difference between matter and anti-matter as well as search for signatures of particles beyond the Standard Model."

"I am a particle physicist and a member of the LHCb collaboration at CERN."

"LHCb is one of the four experiments located on the Large Hadron Collider at CERN."

"There is a high level of training of young PhD students."

"Some of the questions we try to address on everyday basis may seem disconnected from daily matters and to some extent they are."

"The heart of fundamental physics is to push further human knowledge, even if maybe we face too many meetings and compilation errors."

"Particle Physics by its complexity is one of the best schools to learn critical thinking."

"I am inherently a curious person, and I am always questioning everything. *Fundamental science strikes me as being an ideal home for the curious."

"My trajectory towards fundamental physics was not straightforward."

"I started with Medicine as my parents are both medical doctors, this path was not for me though."

"At the library of the university, I discovered the physics textbooks and fell in love with the topic instantly."

"Self-doubt is real, and sometimes, we can be our own biggest critics,” said Anderson. “We have to understand that we are excellent. We are great. And at the end of the day, for any woman coming to this industry—if you’re even thinking about it—there’s something in you. If it were easy, everyone would be doing it."

"STEM for me was being a doctor. I didn’t even know what an engineer was!"

"As a kid, I wasn’t exposed to the fields of engineering, but I knew I always loved learning and math was always my favorite class. My own research on college degrees when I was a senior in high school led me to find the careers of ‘engineer."

"Tech is in their face, so they don’t have to try hard to know about the industry; it’s right there in the palm of their hands. They see it every day. They use these apps daily,"

"If we want to continue to attract talent to this industry and remain globally competitive, we have to put in the effort to show students our industry and what we do. If not, they will all gladly head to Silicon Valley."

"I didn’t know what engineering was until my senior year in high school,” said Anderson. “I thought an engineer was a train driver, and nobody told me differently."

"It was all about people who like a challenge; people who are lifelong learners,” said Anderson. “And as I kept reading, I kept hearing myself in this description. People had always said, you’re smart, you should be a doctor or a lawyer. But nobody ever said engineer."

"ExxonMobil was challenging, and I absolutely loved it,” said Anderson. “I loved the boots, the hard hats, getting my hands dirty. I was able to go out into the field, see all the equipment. I was in awe. I fell in love with it."

"“Don’t take life too seriously. You don’t need to figure things out right away. Figure things out along the way…“"

"I’m blessed to have a network of incredible women entrepreneurs and team members who inspire me every day to get up and fight."

"With WomHub, I’m particularly excited about our work supporting female founders, especially given the lack of capital that goes into female-founded businesses as well as a general lack of support."

"I think the barrier to doing incredible things has been lowered by technology, which has started to reduce inequality. Before, you needed an Ivy League education, where now you can learn cool things online from those institutions, tinker with technology and develop cool things, connect to others and have your voice heard, and that excites me for young women in STEM."

"“We are thrilled to open WomHub and provide a space where women can grow their businesses and hopefully make more money,” our mission is to empower women to pursue their passions and achieve success on their own terms.”"

"“ For women who are breastfeeding, we’ve got a wellness area where women can do yoga, meditation and prayer. We’ve also got what we call the junior engineer hub. It’s basically a co-play space for kids that when you are working, your kids can co-play in the space and also learn about STEM and tech,”"
