CCAPP is proud to host the 2026 CCAPP Fellows Symposium! 

The CCAPP postdoctoral fellows and affiliate fellows will present their research in short talks in a hybrid event, in person in PRB 1080 (right off the PRB atrium) and also on Zoom (the link will be available shortly). The symposium will take place from 12:00 - 4:30 pm on September 30 and 12:00 - 4:30 pm on October 1.

The main motivation of the symposium is to have new and present researchers share their research with the rest of CCAPP, and also help the new arrivals to get acquainted with the other members of the departments.  We also invite graduation students from both Astronomy and Physics to showcase their research during the Poster sessions.

Everyone from CCAPP, the Department of Astronomy, and the Department of Physics is welcome to attend the symposium in person or online.  Talks will be geared to a general physics/astronomy audience.

The meeting is broken up generally by subject, with different sessions focusing on research ranging from supernova to gravitational lensing, neutrino detection, dark matter theory and more.  The agenda and abstracts are listed below.

Lead organizers: Madeline Howell, Charuhas Shiveshwarkar, and Kevin Vockerodt
