The University of Calgary is hosting the 2012 Congress of the Canadian Association of Physicists!

June 11-15, 2012

The CAP Congress is the most important general physics conference in Canada. Every year, hundreds of Canadian and international physicists meet at the host Canadian university to:

  • Communicate the results of their recent research
  • Experience research presentation across the broad spectrum of physics sub-disciplines in our Divisions
  • Exchange ideas and to argue alternate interpretations through informal discussion
  • Be informed of and to debate matters of science policy
  • Promote physics education
  • Conduct the affairs of the Association
  • Renew old friendships

The main congress website gives you all of the essential information. Here you can find more information about this congress, and about the city of Calgary.
