On Thursday, May 26th, the Institute of Physics (IOP) released a campaign on Twitter to break down the stereotype of what a physicist looks like.
The objective of the movement is to help the non-scientific community to better understand that there is no mainstream physicist, and that there is a wide range of jobs a physicist can do, from finance (econophysics) to healthcare (medical physics).

The fusion group at Barcelona Supercomputing Center, a multidisciplinary group with many physicists, is glad to be part of this community, in the pursuit to reveal the mysteries of the universe and apply the knowledge acquired in technologies to build a better world.
