Zoom on the Universe

Like everyone else in the field I've been enjoying the new benefits and disadvantages of Zoom meetings since the lockdown in March. They've given access to talks from all around the world, and made it even easier to carry on working on my own stuff while ignoring someone else talking in the background (it's amazing how motivating being in a talk can be).

However, as part of the FĂȘte de la Science, this week some eminent members of the particles and strings groups at my lab are getting together to do an Ask Me Anything for anyone - adults or chidren - interested to ask questions about the deep questions in the universe. They'll be on Monday/Wednesday/Friday at 17h30 CET. The first two will be in French, and the last one in English. I'll be taking part in the one on Friday, mainly putting on my string theory cap. We had a rehearsal last week which was a lot of fun, I'm hoping the real thing will be even better.

Please circulate the link here and visit us to ask anything you ever wanted to know about string theory, cosmology, dark matter, physics Beyond the Standard Model, ... from researchers working at the cutting edge!
