Liz Sexton-Kennedy takes on role of Fermilab chief information officer June 13, 2018 computingpeopleFermilab feature Sexton-Kennedy remembers watching “Powers of Ten” when she was in middle school. The film explores physics at the very largest cosmological scales all the way down to elementary particle physics and ignited her interest in the field.
