The iPAT-LAB Team during an experimental campaign with the LLNL-JLF technical team
Our group consists of people coming from different countries and having different backgrounds, thus forming a multidisciplinary and multicultural environment. In order to be more efficient and profit from the numerous collaborations that we have, our team members work dislocated in different laboratories and facilities, forming a network of professionals who are interested in challenging, rewarding opportunities offered by science and technology. Since iPAT-LAB is what the team members want it to be, we count on the contribution of each single individual in order to let our group become a pleasant and enriching working environment and to maximize the overall performance. We expect from each team member to be a cheerful and inspiring team-player that integrates the group with complementary expertise, dynamism, flexibility and readiness to help.
