The forum will be hosted at the University of Basel. As with past forums, the YPF’s main attraction is a series of lectures on this year’s topic, held by professors and experts active in the field.

Participants who register for the event will spend a weekend — from Friday afternoon until Sunday afternoon — together with like-minded physics students from all Swiss universities. In addition to the lecture series, the programme includes a variety of social and networking activities, offering students the opportunity to exchange ideas, discuss, reflect, and enjoy a physics-themed weekend in an engaging academic environment.
