Leaving Imperial
Just to Let people know today is my last day at Imperial. I will be going to work for CERN, for the MediPix collaboration for 18 months. Essentially I will be working on understanding the performance of their new radiation imaging sensor.
I will be heading to Geneva for a week on Monday for induction etc, then heading to Holland for six weeks where i will be working with a company called PANalytical, a Philips spin out. I intend to be back at weekends. Then in the middle of November I'm going to be moving to France full time.
So the end of an era, I have missed the decade at imperial by 3 days... my contract at CERN starts on the 1st and my first day at college in '98 was the 3rd (don't ask me why i remember that). I don't know what i think tbh, slightly sad at leaving the place i have stayed the longest of anywhere in my life, but also fairly excited to be doing something new.
I will have a spare room at the place in France so if people would like to invite themselves over for a long weekend they would be most welcome.
