Thanks to all participants for a great workshop! ALPS2019 will take place Apr 22nd-27th.

Continuing the tradition of 2016 and 2017, we will meet in the Austrian Alps to discuss recent results and developments in experimental and theoretical particle physics. The dates of the meeting are April 15 - 20, 2018 and the following topics are at the focus of the meeting:

• Flavour and hadron physics
• Beyond the Standard Model physics
• Higgs and Standard Model physics
• Neutrino physics
• Dark matter
• Future colliders

The days are divided into morning sessions with keynote talks, and  late afternoon sessions that will comprise shorter presentations on more specialized topics and the Young Scientist Forum. The meeting will take place at the Obergurgl University Centre, in the ski-resort town of Obergurgl, located in the upper Oetztal Valley in Tyrol, Austria.
