Dopesheet: Large-scale demonstration to defend research budgets in Europe - ?Research without a budget means a Europe without a future?. Several hundred CERN collaborators will demonstrate in Geneva to proclaim their concerns about threats of additional budget cuts by certain Member States. These scientists, supported by representatives of other European research organizations, will hold a mass gathering on the theme ?Research without a budget means a Europe without a future?. According to Gianni Deroma, President of the CERN Staff Association: ?To favour economic recovery in Europe and consolidate its position as world leader in particle physics, it is vital to invest in CERN today. After the marvellous first results given by the LHC additional budget restrictions could ruin all the efforts made so far and thus jeopardize the reliability of the accelerator complex". Support from other European research organizations: CERN is not alone in worrying about the future of research. Other European scientific organizations will join the demonstration, with the same message ?Research without a budget means Europe without a future?. Staff representatives from the following organizations in particular will either present or send a message of support: EMBL: European Molecular Biology Laboratory ESA: European Space Agency ESO: European Southern Observatory ESRF: European Synchrotron Radiation Facility GSI: Institute for Heavy Ion Research ILL: Laue-Langevin Institute Shotlist: - various of the demonstration. - Interviews: Gianni Deroma President of the CERN Staff Association , in french language Rachel Bray, CERN technical Engineer , in english language Michel Goosens , Physicist , in english language. - more of the demonstration. - B Roll: file material of CERN.
