Evolving Beyond the Standard Model

30 Jun 2025, 08:30 → 11 Jul 2025, 19:00 Europe/Zurich

4/3-006 - TH Conference Room (CERN)

Maria Pestana Da Luz Pereira Ramos, Matthew Philip Mccullough (CERN), Rachel Houtz, Tim Cohen (CERN)

The workshop is aimed at providing a platform to review and highlight the latest breakthroughs in BSM physics, including recent developments in cosmology, model building, high-energy phenomenology and formal theory.

The program will consist of a light schedule of invited talks, allowing ample room for scientific interaction and collaboration.

The first day of the workshop (June 30) will be a celebration of Gian Giudice's scientific contributions to the TH department:
