DESCRIPTION:What are we\, and where do we come from? - Searching for flavou
 r in beauty\n\nNowadays the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is the bes
 t known high energy physics research facility. However\, there are other f
 acilities around the world performing cutting edge high energy physics res
 earch. Some of these are the so called flavour factories which have a long
  tradition in high energy physics. Two of these are currently in operation
 : BES III in China and Belle II in Japan. Collecting huge amounts of data\
 , the goal of these experiments is to measure free parameters of the stand
 ard model of particle physics with very high precision to find deviations 
 from predictions by theory. Such deviations can hint to new physics\, and 
 physicists are still searching for the reasons of our very existence as by
  our best knowledge nothing but light should have remained after the big b
 ang. But testing the standard model is challenging. Huge data sets in the 
 order of tera bytes need to be analysed requiring advanced analysis softwa
 re and techniques. By now these analyses usually employ machine learning a
 nd artificial intelligence in various kinds\, while using custom hardware 
 and software\, and a world spanning computing infrastructure. All of this 
 is only possible with more than 1000 people working together in a collabor
 ation. Part of the work in high energy physics nowadays would not be possi
 ble anymore without the groundbreaking research by this year's Nobel laure
 ates for physics.\nIn this talk I will present what flavour physics is\, t
 he reasons why flavour physics is interesting and why it matters\, and whi
 ch challenges we are facing\, using the Belle II experiment as an example.
  Most of the challenges are not unique to Belle II but to high energy phys
 ics in general\, so I will also set this into the bigger context and take 
 a look to what is ahead of us in the field of high energy physics.
