SNOLAB runs a virtual series of research seminars bringing together experimental and theoretical physicists from across Canada and around the world to present their most recent research.
Seminars are typically held on Mondays at 1:00 PM ET. To receive reminders and connection info or to be added to the SNOLAB Seminar Series email-list, contact Andy Kubik (andy.kubik@snolab.ca), and/or Aleksandra Bialek (aleksandra.bialek@snolab.ca), and/or Pietro Giampa (pietro.giampa@snolab.ca).
