NRKZ Signal · Signal illustrationThe public consultation for the Future Circular Collider (FCC) project in France and Switzerland concluded on October 1 and 2, respectively. Over 3,500 registrations were received for events organized during the four-month consultation period. The process involved two exercises tailored to the two Host States: a consultation exercise in Switzerland and a public debate in France. Results will be published in early December. This initiative aims to provide the public and CERN with a better understanding of the project and its complexity.
NRKZ Signal · Signal illustrationCERN is hosting an exhibition titled 'Why? It matters.' Matière à questions invites the public to explore big questions, challenges, and decisions shaping the future of particle physics. Visitors will discover current thinking on future research, including mysteries of the Universe, technological challenges, and possible future accelerators. The exhibition also highlights the collaborative process of shaping the next decades of research.

NASA/Joel Kowsky · Archive imageThe CERN Pension Fund is launching MyPension, a new online portal designed to simplify administrative procedures and enhance user experience. Initially available to active members, the portal will be extended to beneficiaries during a subsequent phase. MyPension offers easy access to pension information and allows for independent interactions with the Pension Fund. The portal supports users through key stages of their pension journey, including end-of-contract formalities and transfers.
NRKZ Signal · Signal illustrationThe FAP department is urging all remunerated personnel to verify their bank details using an EDH form. The private address is crucial and must match the bank's record to avoid payment issues. No new form is needed if details are already accurate.
NRKZ Signal · Signal illustrationCERN, during Long Shutdown 3, has implemented a structure to manage concurrent activities, focusing on monitoring to ensure proper coordination. This includes checking work is carried out properly, implementing measures, and identifying deficiencies that could lead to safety incidents. Site visits are recommended to verify measures from the preparatory phase are implemented, especially regarding safety measures. The frequency depends on work duration, risk level, environment, concurrent activities, and operating entities.

NASA/Joel Kowsky · Archive imageCERN has launched an updated Safety at CERN e-learning course to reinforce its safety culture. The course, designed for all members of the CERN community, provides a concise introduction to working safely and promotes awareness of safety principles. The course is aimed at refreshing knowledge and reflecting on daily safety practices. It takes approximately 10-15 minutes to complete.
NRKZ Signal · Signal illustrationMIT researchers have developed a method to reprogram natural killer (NK) cells to target cancerous or autoreactive T cells, potentially bypassing manufacturing challenges. Using lipid nanoparticles, they deliver messenger RNA encoding CAR constructs to NK cells, enabling them to attack diseased T cells without removing them from the patient's body. This approach could be applied to various diseases and reduce the time and expense associated with manufacturing CAR NK cells.
NRKZ Signal · Signal illustrationThe International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction theme 'Resilience Starts at Home' emphasizes the importance of preparedness. CERN encourages its community to receive emergency alerts from CERN and official alerts from Host States to strengthen resilience. Staying connected to trusted sources of information is a practical way to contribute to a safer community.
