In today’s video, we’ll be speaking to Mark Thomson, the newly appointed director general of CERN, to discuss the future of the world’s biggest particle physics laboratory.
“There are really big questions that we don't know the answer to,” says Thomson. “Big questions like dark matter. Is the Higgs boson a fundamental particle? Does the Higgs boson interact with the dark matter? At some point, we are going to find answers to some of these really, really big questions."
Join us today at 6pm GMT (1pm EST) to watch the full interview.

Join us at 6pm UTC tomorrow (March 11th) to find out more 💀
