The Instituto de Física Corpuscular has incorporated 4 of the 17 researchers hired by the first 'GenT' program of the Generalitat Valenciana, whose objective is to attract excellent research staff to research centres of the region. Over the next four years they will develop their work at the IFIC on topics ranging from the construction of future particle detectors to the search for 'new physics' and neutrino physics.
The IFIC launches ARTEMISA, an installation for the development of Artificial Intelligence techniques applied to Fundamental Physics and other applied research of the institute as improving diagnosis and treatment of cancer. It involves an investment of one million euros funded by the European Union under the FEDER programme for Comunitat Valenciana 2014-2020 procurement of infrastructures and R+D equipment.
70 people from different cultures and countries carry out their PhD at the Instituto de Física Corpuscular, whose scientific staff conducted 22 theses and 17 master's degree final projects in 2017, both in Theoretical and Experimental Physics. IFIC also trains students in technical disciplines involved in the development of large international scientific infrastructures where IFIC researchers participate.
The Instituto de Física Corpuscular promotes outreach and communication activities to bring science to society. IFIC receives about 1,000 visitors each year, and participates in events such as Expociencia, the European Researchers Night, Pint of Science or the Dark Matter Day (pictured). IFIC also organizes several masterclasses to introduce high school students into particle physics.
On October 18th there will be a debate on dark matter between particle physicists and astrophysicists. On the 29th and 31st, talks and screening of the documentary 'Phamtom of the Universe'.
