These tiny parasites can pose serious health risks by transmitting infections such as Lyme disease (Lyme borreliosis) and tick-borne encephalitis (TBE). While Lyme disease is treatable with antibiotics, TBE is rarer, with up to 12 000 cases reported globally each year, but can be prevented with vaccination. The TBE vaccine is recommended for anyone, including children, living in or travelling to high-risk areas. In Europe, these areas include Switzerland, Austria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia and Sweden.
If you find a tick on your body, visit the CERN Medical Service infirmary for safe removal and expert advice.
For more information on ticks, tick-borne diseases, vaccination options and prevention tips, visit the dedicated Medical Service webpage: hse.cern/ticks.
roryalex Wed, 03/25/2026 - 11:51 Byline Medical Service Publication Date Wed, 03/25/2026 - 11:49CERN’s vast site hosts a variety of buildings and installations, as well as diverse groups of people, from seasoned personnel to first-time visitors. Fire safety measures are implemented to protect this diverse population, but also CERN’s costly infrastructure and the environment. Ensuring safe evacuation is a priority in this context, with building layouts designed to facilitate quick, orderly exits. But even the best infrastructure relies on effective human response.
A recent planned evacuation of most of the Main Building complex (R1 and Buildings 500, 503, 61, 62, 63 and 64, but not 60) offered valuable insights in this respect. At 2.07 p.m. on a cold and cloudy afternoon, sirens blared. While the sirens were loud and clear and the fire doors and lifts responded as designed, human behaviour varied. Many of the approximately 220 people who were present evacuated to the assembly point. However, half of them hesitated before starting to move, some left the building but stayed near the exits, eight re-entered the building and ten entered during the alarm. Two of the emergency exits in the Main Building complex were obstructed by equipment. Thanks to individuals taking the lead, notably restaurant staff, who acted as emergency guides, the evacuation finally got under way. The event highlighted the importance of keeping exits clear and of being familiar with procedures, as well as the power of leading by example in emergencies.
We all play a role in ensuring that CERN is a fire-safe place: make sure that you know and understand the applicable evacuation procedures and that you are aware of the nearest emergency exits and assembly points, and communicate this information to newcomers and visitors. Further, CERN regularly organises planned evacuations like the one mentioned above. They prepare us all for real emergencies: treating every drill as if it were real can make the difference between confusion and calm in a crisis.
If you see blocked exits or unsafe practices, speak up and inform your TSO or DSO. To find out more about fire safety in general, consult the dedicated Fire Safety Risks webpages. If you have specific queries about fire safety, reach out to the Fire Safety Engineering team: hse-fset@cern.ch.
Safety first. Safety always.

The CERN Relay Race, organised by the Running Club and the Staff Association, will be back on Thursday, 7 May for its 54th edition.
This now legendary race – the first edition took place in 1971 – returns with the same ingredients as in past years, which led to record numbers of participants in 2025: 183 teams and over 1100 runners/walkers in total. The goal of the 2026 edition is thus clear: to beat that record!
The main race will start at 12.15 p.m. in front of Building 40, closely followed by the walkers’ race and the children’s race, which is being organised with the support of the Jardin des Particules.
The CERN Alumni Network will be taking part in the event thanks to an online relay race challenge: teams composed of CERN alumni from across the globe will be able to run the CERN Relay Race distances in their different locations.
The social part of the event won’t be forgotten, with the participation of various CERN clubs and Staff Association partners that will be presenting their activities, and there will be a professional DJ to liven up the event. As always, runners are more than welcome to participate in fancy dress and to compete in the costume contest.
No doubt the spectators will be out in force cheering all the teams on and the sun will shine, making the 54th edition the best one yet.
Register on the CERN Running Club webpage.

In line with the cantonal objectives designed to improve the discharge regime and water quality of the Nant d'Avril, CERN is modernising the way that rainwater is managed on its Meyrin site. A site-specific list of actions is included in the regional wastewater management plan (Plan Régional d'Evacuation des Eaux, PREE) for the Nant d'Avril, which was validated by the Council of State in July 2014.
A hydrological study carried out in 2017 by a specialist engineering firm confirmed the relevance and necessity of structural work to reduce the impact of run-off on the regional water system.
Reinforced infrastructure
Several measures will be gradually implemented on the Meyrin site:
Start of work in the Greinacher car park
Work on the open-air retention basin in the Greinacher car park started on 10 March.
85 parking spaces will be unavailable for the duration of the work, including 56 that will be permanently removed. This is in addition to the spaces that are temporarily unavailable due to the renovation work currently under way on Building 100.

anschaef Thu, 03/12/2026 - 10:21 Byline SCE department Publication Date Thu, 03/12/2026 - 10:15A hadron collider’s energy reach is defined by the circumference of its tunnel and the strength of its dipole magnets. Next-generation hadron colliders look set to have tunnels more than three times longer than the LHC. Further expansion of the energy frontier depends on the ability of accelerator physicists to increase the strength of the magnets.
This is one of the hardest problems in applied superconductivity – and exactly the sort of challenge that can inspire spinoff applications, from energy-efficient power transmission in cities to sustainable air travel. This edition’s cover illustrates a high-temperature superconducting cable developed by Amalia Ballarino’s team at CERN in collaboration with Airbus.

ehatters Thu, 03/12/2026 - 10:12 Byline Mark Rayner Publication Date Thu, 03/12/2026 - 10:06Not all plastics can be recycled in the same way. At CERN, among all types of plastics, only PET beverage bottles are sorted for recycling.
All waste generated at CERN is treated in Switzerland, including waste from sites located in France. Swiss sorting rules therefore apply to all CERN sites.
Recycling depends on the treatment streams available locally. Currently, only PET bottles have a fully operational recycling stream in the region. Other plastics (rigid packaging, flexible plastics, films, trays, etc.) cannot yet be recycled locally.
In addition, the quantities of plastics generated at CERN are very low. Setting up a dedicated collection would require significant logistical resources for limited environmental benefits.
Recycling starts with correct sorting! Remember: at CERN only PET beverage bottles go in the PET bin. All other plastics must be disposed of with “Other waste”.
We all play a role: learn more about the different CERN waste disposal channels on our "What Goes Where?" page. Find out more about the many ways CERN acts to minimise its impact on the environment.
ehatters Wed, 03/11/2026 - 17:57 Byline SCE department Publication Date Wed, 03/11/2026 - 17:552025 was a record year for blood donation at CERN, with three campaigns including one spanning two days. These saw a 25% increase in the number of donors and 36% in the number of donations and we warmly thank all donors for their support.
According to the Geneva blood barometer, blood stocks in the region remain low: CERN’s support as a key contributor (ranking 2nd as the region’s biggest blood donor after the Hôpitaux universitaires de Genève (HUG)) is essential to ensuring availability of blood stocks for those in need, when they need it most. Furthermore, as of 1 February 2026, the criteria for blood donation have changed and certain previous restrictions lifted, meaning that a wider population can donate. In particular, regarding stays in the United Kingdom between 1980 and 1996, the permanent exclusion is lifted and the individuals concerned can once again donate blood, The HUG explain more in this article (in French).
CERN will hold a its first blood donation session of 2026 over two days, on Tuesday 24 and Wednesday 25 March, from 8.30 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. in collaboration with the HUG in Building 29.
Before coming to the Building 29 donation point, please make sure that:
Save yourself time: pre-book your appointment with OneDoc
The possibility of pre-booking your appointment via the OneDoc platform is made available on this link. Spontaneous donors will be able to come at their convenience without an appointment, mindful that there may be some waiting time on the day.
As a thank you, the HUG will be giving each donor a 10 CHF voucher, to be used on the day of the donation in Novae’s Restaurants 1 and 2 at CERN.

We hope to see many of you at the donation point!
anschaef Wed, 03/11/2026 - 14:06 Byline Medical Service Publication Date Wed, 03/11/2026 - 14:00In July 2024, CERN adopted its first Fluorinated Gases (F-Gas) Policy, which formalises its strategy to minimise the environmental impact of its installations and activities that use or contain F-gases, underlining the Organization’s commitment to reducing its direct (Scope 1) greenhouse gas emissions and to contributing responsibly to global climate action.
F-gases are essential to CERN’s cutting-edge research – they are used in a wide range of applications and equipment at CERN, including cooling, particle detection and electrical insulation. But they also come at a cost: F-gases account for some 90% of our direct (Scope 1) emissions. Reaching our ambitious goal of reducing Scope 1 emissions by 50% by 2030 implies that they be responsibly managed at all stages and levels.
To support this effort, CERN has published the F-Gas Policy Implementation Measures and launched a new F-Gas Fundamentals e-learning course and F-Gas Policy implementation: practical guidance webpages.
These resources will give all personnel involved with F-gases the tools to:
The F-Gas Fundamentals e-learning course is mandatory for all personnel handling F-gases, i.e. those involved in:
This isn’t just about compliance – it’s about resilience. With F-gases becoming scarcer and more expensive, and with CERN’s research depending on them, adapting quickly is essential. Embracing better management, mitigation strategies and alternative solutions helps make CERN’s science sustainable.
