Minister of Education and Science Krasimir Valchev has met in Geneva with Fabiola Gianotti, Director-General of the European Organization for Nuclear Research CERN, and with Bulgarian researchers in Switzerland, to discuss new opportunities for the participation of Bulgarian researchers in CERN projects.

Minister Valchev got acquainted with the experiment CMS, in which many Bulgarian scientists are involved. CMS - the compact muon solenoid - is a general-purpose detector at CERN’s large hadron collider, in the maintenance and exploitation of which Bulgaria has been involved since 1999.

640 Bulgarian physics and natural sciences teachers have been trained at CERN since 2008, plus 3,000 children under the school training programme.
