Portugal at Cern: 40 years of Science, Innovation and International Cooperation – Science
A. January 11, 1986, Portugal has officially entered Sern. Earlier, the then Foreign Minister Jaim Gamma led the embassy and the strong involvement of Jose Mariano Gago, already taken Signature of Agreement April 26, 1985.
The entry to the internationalization of Portuguese science has confirmed himself as a decisive step In the same year, LIP (Laboratory of Instrumentation and Experimental Particle Physics) was created with a mission that coordinates national partnership in CERN’s scientific experiences.

When the lip remembers in a statement, Portuguese science is in relevant cooperationNe38, PS195, such as Delphi, Compass, Atlas and CMS, here ” An important role in the construction, operation and data analysis of experiences”.
Existing existing Actively participating in the high brightness phase of LHC .
The device developed by the laboratory In addition to strong investment in computer skillsWith lip -scientific computing group to make Portugal partner of international projects such as WLCG (global infrastructure that process LHC data) And other European consortia of data science.
The lip also highlights Wisdom is applied in instruments and simulation in fields with great importance at social level like healthIncluding medical imaging and dosimetry programs in collaboration with the development of pet animal systems and the Future Proton Therapy Center in Portugal.
Laboratory participation It also extends to developing areas such as neutrinos physics and nuclear astrophysicsParticipating in experiences such as Sno+, Dune and Recently, the leadership of an experience in CERN’s isolde complex.
Sern is also a Hundreds of students, engineers and special space for training and development of youth. Participating in large -scale projects is possible to create unique skills, which can be applied in many different fields, including the aerospace sector, medicine, computing or high accuracy industry.
“This year we celebrated the 40th anniversary of the beginning of the Portugal’s adhesion process to Sarn. We will point out the 40th anniversary of LIP next year. With these dates, we celebrate all the knowledge that we allowed to achieve, as well as sharing, when we see the small windows that open in the fabric of the universe by the great machines of Sern”, Patresia Gonalves said lip president.
