Thanks to Highland Park High School for their Science and Technology Festival!

by Stephen Sekula|Published February 7, 2020

Some of the speaker lineup for a period of the HPHS SciTech Fest.

I am very pleased to have been invited this year to speak at the annual Highland Park High School Science and Technology Festival. I spoke with three periods of students about the life of a traveling particle physicist and what it meant (both from a personal and professional perspective) to discover the Higgs particle. Thanks to the organizers for allowing me to be a part of this incredible event!
