Taken from an official here. It is refreshing to hear, as well, that half of the engineers who operate the Large Hadron Collider are women anyway.
On the same web page you can also watch video interviews, including one featuring graduate student, Laura Jeanty, who works at the ATLAS detector. Jeanty explains why she is supporting International Women’s Day and why she thinks that more women are needed in the particle physics community.
This isn’t to detract either from CERN’s (surprisingly?) positive effort to present physics to young women, nor the article by Ms. Mayor. I do find it just slightly ironic that the article had to get posted to the PhysicsWorld blog by a man.
