27 Sep '23

Dear All, The hep@vub group is organising a poster session on October 26 here at VUB, with some drinks, in a nice atmosphere to know more our young and not-young colleagues working on high-energy at VUB. It would be nice to participate, it starts at 16:30 so it will be really the end of your working day. If you have an already prepared poster (Hannah for instance), you could also present it. See here below and please register.

by Alberto Mariotti 13 Sep '23

13 Sep '23

Hi guys, so Lorenzo Calibbi from Nankai University will visit us in the week from the 2 to the 6 of October. Lorenzo is an expert on flavour physics and dark matter. I will organize a seminar of him for Tuesday 3 October (in the usual JC time slot). Ah, by the way, I will soon send an email to restart our JC in October, after Lorenzo's visit. Best, Alberto #---------------------------------------------------------------------# Alberto Mariotti Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) https://we.vub.ac.be/HEPVUB Phone: +32 (0) 2 629 32 15 E-mail: alberto.mariotti(a)vub.be Address: Vrije Universiteit Brussel Physics Department Elementary Particles Research Group Pleinlaan 2, 1050 Brussels, Belgium #---------------------------------------------------------------------#
