About The Transatlantic Big Science Conferences#
The inaugural conference was held in Washington DC in 2022. The program, jointly organized by the US-based Carnegie Science and the EU-based DESY (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron), brought together international scientific leaders, researchers and policymakers working across disciplines. The conference highlighted a wide range of exciting new research and led to important conversations on how scientists on both sides of the Atlantic can collaborate most productively.
Since that first conference, the Transatlantic Big Science Conference steering committee has been working to move these conversations forward and find the most effective and innovative ways to build lasting connections between researchers on both sides of the Atlantic.
