鈥淭he goal of our experiment was to get a better understanding of the differences between matter and antimatter, hoping to help solve the mystery of why antimatter is so rare in the universe,鈥� George explained.
In the Student鈥檚 Own Words:
鈥淭he best part of doing research is being part of the team and working together to answer a question,鈥� Juarez said. 鈥淚t was great learning about the answer we're trying to answer. It was also great doing work and seeing how it will contribute to the main research question.
鈥淚 learned that I like doing research and that I like applying what I learned in class to the questions and problems in my research,鈥� he added. 鈥淚 chose this research because I wanted experience in research. I wanted to see if research were something I would want to do as a career.鈥�
