Seminars

The Theory Department hosts a vibrant programme of seminars throughout the year, covering topics ranging from broad developments in particle physics to highly specialized areas of theoretical research. These events provide opportunities for scientific exchange, collaboration, and discussion across the department and the wider CERN community.

Theory Colloquium

The Theory Colloquium is the department’s weekly seminar, intended for the entire TH community. It takes place every Wednesday at 14:00 and features presentations on topics of broad interest in theoretical and particle physics.

Specialized Seminar Series

Several specialized theory seminars and CERN-wide seminar series are organized each week. Members of the community are encouraged to propose topics and invite speakers through the relevant seminar organizers.

The full list of seminar series is available on Indico. The organizers of each seminar series can be found by selecting the corresponding seminar title.
