Today marks the start of the 29th International Conference on Neutrino Physics and Astrophysics, which brings together thousands of researchers for the latest developments in the field. A record number of participants are gathering virtually to share science about one of the most enigmatic particles in the Standard Model.
The conference runs from June 22 to July 2. More details are available in the conference’s media advisory.
