We are pleased to announce the “1st BiCoQ Conference: from gravity to particles”, hosted by the University of Milano-Bicocca from June 15 to 19, 2026, and organized by BiCoQ – the Bicocca Centre for Quantitative Cosmology.
The conference aims to bring together a broad community of scientists working at the intersection of gravitational-wave astronomy, dark matter physics, and experimental cosmology.
Plenary sessions will review state-of-the-art advancements in the main scientific areas covered by the conference, while three focused parallel sessions will address ongoing efforts and future directions in:
– Constraining dark matter and dark energy through astrophysical observations
– The physics of gravitational waves from binary systems
– The search for new physics via the detection of dark matter candidates beyond the Standard Model and ultra-high-frequency gravitational waves
Abstract submission is now open.
