We both worked at Gran Sasso Laboratory in Italy, near where I was born. Then there was an opportunity to work in Brazil, my wife&#8217;s home country. So we left Italy in 2015 for Brazil. Soon after, we had this idea for a type of sensor for DUNE. The idea was born while we were on a 40-minute drive to pick up our son from kindergarten. It was for a type of photon detector, which we called ARAPUCA, and we&#8217;ve had so much success with it. So we went from a situation \u2014 moving from Italy to Brazil \u2014 where we didn&#8217;t know what to do to an idea that&#8217;s had great success. We&#8217;ve also joined and helped build the Latin American DUNE community. It&#8217;s beneficial from a scientific point of view and for the students. It&#8217;s fun to think that everything started from that moment during that long drive.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/div>\n<div class=\"learnmore\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fnal.gov\/pub\/science\/lbnf-dune\/index.html\">Curious about the project?
