Collaborating Across Borders

COFFEE_KLATCH · Invited

Abstract

Physicists transcend national boundaries, ethnic differences, and scientific disciplines to address globally shared problems and questions. This talk will highlight how scientists have collaborated across borders -- both geographic and scientific -- to achieve ground-breaking discoveries~through international scientific cooperation. The speaker also will address how international collaborations will be even more crucial for addressing future challenges faced by the physics community, such as building large-scale research facilities, strengthening scientific capacity in developing countries, fostering "science for diplomacy" in times of political tensions and other critical issues.
