Founder's Day 2025

Founder's Day is the annual celebration honouring the vision of Sir Mark Oliphant, and the way we see ourselves today.

Celebrations will be held at the New Physics Building Auditorium and Foyer, and will include reflections by the Director, award presentations, short public science talks from our research community, and the usual lavish lunch.

Please join us as we showcase some of the highlights in research and education over the past year.
