Description
We will report the status of the milliQan experiment at CERN. The milliQan "bar" detector was completed in June 2023 and has been taking physics data since then. The milliQan "slab" detector was completed in Fall of 2024 and is being commissioned. We will give an update on the readiness of the slab detectorfor physics data taking. Finally, we will present first physics results on the search for millicharged particles in 127 fb$^{-1}$ pp collision data recorded by the bar detector during Run 3 of the LHC.
