Institut Henri Poincaré
Thematic 3-weeks programme at the Institut Henri Poincaré, Paris, May 5th to 23rd, 2025.
Programme talks and conference are in the new IHP building, Perrin building, Maison Poincaré.

Presentation of the programme
The goal of the program is to foster discussions and collaborations among researchers that have different areas of expertise relevant for the key open issues in the fields of neutrinos and dark matter, and to train PhD students, postdocs and young researchers that might not be in both fields yet. The IHP program will offer a positive and stimulating environment to host discussions and brainstormings around debated open issues at the frontier between dark matter and neutrinos, at a moment where related experimental progress will attract unique international attention to these fields.
The program comprises one week school and two weeks' workshop.
Topical school: from May 5 to 9, IHP, Perrin building
Lectures and Lecturers:
- ”Solar neutrinos: a path to discovery” - Arthur McDonald (Queen’s University)
- “Dark matter in astrophysical bodies” - Joseph Bramante (Queen’s U. & Perimeter Institute)
- “Dark matter” - Jiji Fan (Brown U.)
- “Neutrinos Physics” - Silvia Pascoli (Bologna U. and INFN, CERN)
- “Neutrino astrophysics" - Georg Raffelt (MPI Münich)
