Acting Director's Message

Dear Colleagues,

The National Youth Science Forum Program has just finished. Thanks to those who have helped making this year’s edition a success.

The Major Equipment Grant applications closes today. Good luck to those who have applied! 

Once again, please don’t forget the RSPE and CoS peer review deadline of January 30th for the ARC Discovery and DECRA rounds coming up. This peer review process can strongly strengthen your proposals.

The above picture shows the participants to the 25th Canberra International Physics Summer School – “The Invisible Universe”. After a first week dedicated to Dark Matter and Neutrino Physics, the School now focuses on Gravitational Waves and Dark Energy (see below). 

Don’t forget the Physics in the Pub Tuesday (see below) organised as a satellite event to the Summer School, and open to everyone. 

Best wishes,

Cedric
