Description

GUINEAPIG = GeV and Under Invisibles with New Experimental Assays for Particles in the Ground

This workshop will bring together leading experts to discuss new ideas and direct search methods for lighter, sub-GeV, particle dark matter. Additional details can be found here.

GUINEAPIG is supported by the McDonald Institute, SNOLAB, and TRIUMF.
