USQCD All-Hands Meeting 2025
Welcome to the annual meeting of the USQCD Collaboration. The 2025 meeting is sponsored by the Maryland Center for Fundamental Physics at the University of Maryland, College Park and will take place March 26 – 28, 2025.
2024 Meeting on Lattice Parton Physics from Large-Momentum Effective Theory
The 2024 Meeting on Lattice Parton Physics from Large-Momentum Effective Theory (LaMET 2024) will be officially hosted by the Maryland Center for Fundamental Physics (MCFP), Department of Physics, University of Maryland, College Park, during Aug 11-14, 2024. This meeting aims to bring together physicists interested in LaMET and other theoretical approaches with their applications to lattice QCD in the calculation of parton physics.

Rabifest Workshop
Celebrating the career and retirement of Rabindra Mohapatra with a workshop October 20 and 21, 2022
Cosmological Probes of New Physics Workshop
Maryland Center for Fundamental Physics (MCFP), at University of Maryland, is proud to host a three-day workshop on Cosmological Probes of New Physics. The workshop will bring together particle physicists and cosmologists to share new ideas of using cosmological data, in particular CMB, LSS, BAO, gravitational waves and future 21 cm measurements, to search for new physics. Topics include, but are not limited to, the cosmological signals of dark sectors, neutrino cosmology, the inflationary/reheating mechanism, cosmological collider physics, and the H0 problem.
September 15-17 2022
Lattice PDF Workshop, 6–8 April 2018
Join a small group of experts working on QCD, to discuss the current status of the theoretical developments, and future perspectives. The meeting will be organized in a very informal way, mainly focusing on the exchange of ideas. Other interesting topics will also be covered to encourage new ideas and collaborations.
