We all know Python is becoming increasingly important in both science and machine learning.

This week, we journey to the very forefront of physics.

You'll meet Michaela Paganini, Michael Kagan, and Matthew Fikert.

They all work at the Large Hadron Collider and are using Python and Machine Learning to help make the next major discovery in physics.

Join us this week on Talk Python to Me, episode 144 recorded December 14th, 2017.

Hey everyone. Before we get to interview, I want to share a quick update about our Python courses

with you. Do you work on a software

team that needs training and could really use a chance to level up their Python? Maybe your entire

company is looking to become more proficient. We have special offers that make our courses

here at Talk Python the best option for everyone you work with. Our courses don't require an ongoing

subscription like so many corporate trading options do.

And they're roughly priced about the same as a book.

We're here to help you succeed.

Send us a note at Sales at TalkPython.fm to start a conversation.

Now, let's get to the interview.

Michael, Michaela, Matthew, welcome to Talk Python.

Hi, everyone. Thanks for having me.

Yeah, it's an honor to be on the show.
