Classroom Building C-306 (Laurentian University)

Erica Caden (SNOLAB)

The 2024 Tri-Institute Summer School on Elementary Particles (TRISEP) will be held July 8-19, 2024 at SNOLAB and Laurentian University in Sudbury, ON, Canada.

TRISEP is an international summer school organized jointly by the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, SNOLAB, and TRIUMF Canada's laboratory for particle and nuclear physics. TRISEP will feature lectures by leading experts in the field of particle physics in its broadest sense and is designed to be very interactive with ample time for questions, discussions and interaction with the speakers. The school is intended for graduate students of all levels who were already exposed to quantum field theory.

Applications to attend TRISEP will open on February 12.  Requests for financial assistance are vetted on a case-by-case basis and application for funding is not guaranteed.

SNOLAB is located on the traditional territory of the Robinson-Huron Treaty of 1850, shared by the Indigenous people of the surrounding Atikameksheng Anishnawbek First Nation as part of the larger Anishinabek Nation.

We acknowledge those who came before us and honour those who are the caretakers of this land and the waters.
