Is small beautiful?

Abstract

The IdeaSquare innovation team confronts a question many hardly dare to ask. But as always, it never shies away from a good challenge. This time, the journey starts with questioning the universality of the way particle physics research scales up. Is bigger better? The adventure then starts, bottom up, from asking whether small is beautiful. Then, relying on dimensions of politics, biology and finally, physics, the IdeaSquare innovation team find the Universal Truth to answer… (or not) the very question everyone is wondering.
