ABOUT ACADEMIC TRAINING
The CERN Academic Training lectures take place from September to June and provide CERN members - any contract type - with opportunities to deepen and broaden their academic knowledge. The lectures cover physics and technology research results, as well as leading-edge news from other disciplines. Past lectures often present a great historical value. The lectures are open to all members of CERN personnel (staff, fellows, associates, students, users, project associates and apprentices) free of charge.
The Library has a collection of all the handouts since the start of the program in 1961. Most lectures from 1990 onwards have also been recorded. The complete catalogue of the Academic Training Programme lectures is archived since 1968. Since 2018 we can upload selected lectures in a dedicated YouTube playlist.
Please contact atc-members@cern.ch with suggestions and visit our dedicated website.

Physics Beyond Colliders at CERN / Jaekel, Jörg (speaker) (University of Heidelberg)
The CERN Physics Beyond Colliders (PBC) study group was created in 2016 to explore the CERN and European potential for experiments complementary to those investigating the high-energy frontier at present and future large colliders. It currently supports proponents and CERN scientific committees in the preparation and subsequent review of such projects.The first lecture will introduce the field with a comprehensive experimental overview of the PBC landscape, with emphasis on projects proposed to be located at CERN.

CERN Academic Training on hadron therapy - New treatment options at CNAO: the Boron Neutron Capture Therapy / Necchi, Monica (speaker)
AbstractBoron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is a technique that aims at selectively treating tumour cells while sparing healthy tissue, by concentrating a boron compound in the tumour mass and then exposing the tumour to thermal neutrons: . The technique was first proposed soon after the discovery of the neutron and the observation that boron easily captures low-energy neutrons [...]

CERN Academic Training on hadron therapy - Motion management strategies in charged particle therapy / Pella, Andrea (speaker) (CNAO, Pavia)
AbstractThe unique properties of ion beams make them intrinsically suitable for highly conformal dose delivery to the tumour. However, the motion of organs situated in the thorax and abdomen strongly affects the precision of proton and carbon ion radiotherapy [...]

CERN Academic Training on hadron therapy - Robust treatment planning and plan verification strategies in scanning ion beam therapy / Magro, Giuseppe (speaker) (CNAO, Pavia)
AbstractOne of the main objectives in radiotherapy is the conformal delivery of the prescribed dose to the tumour, meaning that cancer tissue should be irradiated whereas the surrounding healthy tissue should be spared as much as possible. Fully exploiting the advantages of ion therapy requires appropriate treatment planning, which takes into account the specificities of ion beams [...]

Neutrinos in the lab and in the cosmos / Kopp, Joachim (speaker) (CERN and University of Mainz, Germany)
Abstract:Neutrino physics has come a long way from counting single-digit numbers of events to precision science with huge data sets. In these lectures, we review the current knowns and unknowns in neutrino physics and we discuss the path towards future discoveries with next-generation observatories like DUNE and HyperKamiokande.
