The 2027 CTEQ-MCgen Summer Workshop and CyberTraining Program

The 2027 CTEQ Summer Workshop on QCD and Electroweak Phenomenology and   2027 MCgen CyberTraining Program will be held at the Michigan State University in East Lansing, MI, USA 20 June  to 1 July 2027. The program provides a focused introduction to perturbative quantum chromodynamics, along with applications and recent experimental results. Additionally, the program will include "hands-on" tutorial sessions on Machine Learning and Monte Carlo event generators organized in concert with the MCgen Collaboration. The event is ideally suited for advanced graduate students and young postdocs.

Note: participants arrive on the evening of Sunday, 20 June 2027, and depart in the afternoon  Thursday 01 July 2027.
