Citing the military invasion of Ukraine, the world’s leading organization for particle physics research has paused its work with Russia.
The European Organization for Nuclear Research will not enter new collaborations with Russian scientific institutions following a request of Ukraine‘s scientists to halt partnerships with Russian science institutions in response to Russia‘s military invasion of their country.
Yet Russian scientists make up about 8% of CERN‘s staff, some 1,000 out of a total of 12,000 researchers, according to Science. Ukrainian scientists, however, requested that CERN halted cooperation with Russian scientific institutions in response to the invasion that began in late February, a measure that the council took under consideration in a meeting held Tuesday .
“The situation will continue to be monitored carefully and the Council is ready to take any further measures, as appropriate, at its future meetings,” the statement added. “The CERN Council also expresses its support to the many members of CERN‘s Russian scientific community who reject this invasion.”
