The next summer, she was one of 20 undergraduates to be selected from across the country to join a research team at CERN, the European Laboratory for Particle Physics, spending nine weeks working with the unique symbiotic relationship between particle physics and cosmology. Fields is currently working on her honors thesis with physics professor Lin Oliver and said her passion for physics continues to grow. The more I learn about physics the more I love it, and I look forward to devoting my life to this field. She wants others to share in this enthusiasm as well. I have spent a great deal of time over the past few years working as a physics tutor.
Most undergraduates are afraid of physics.
It is a fantastic experience to help someone see that science is a beautiful rather than scary world, and I hope I can continue to share the beauty of it in the years to come.
