The LCTP is hosting PIMKIO 7 on Saturday March 30, 2019.

PIMKIO = Particle physics in (Michigan), Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois, and Ohio.

This meeting will bring together the local community of midwest phenomenologists to share their work and discuss recent advances in high energy particle physics, particle astrophysics, dark matter, and cosmology.
