PFC Events
July 19 - 23, 2026
The FINESS workshop series aims to bring together a critical mass of theoretical and experimental expertise at the forefront of research in the fields of degenerate ultra-cold matter, polariton-exciton condensates as well as strongly correlated and open quantum systems.
July 17 - 19, 2024
This workshop brings together leading experts and researchers from diverse disciplines, including nonlinear photonics, quantum optics, single-photon detectors, and chemical physics, to collectively discuss these transformative advancements, with a goal of building a collaborative community to implement the use of quantum light in physics, chemistry and biology.
June 10 - 12, 2024
The Joint Network for Informal Physics Education and Research (JNIPER) is a community of practice thatÌýpromotes connection, collaboration, and learningÌýaround research-based practices for engaging with the public on physics topics. JNIPER aims to elevate the value of informal physics education and public engagement.ÌýThe communityÌýwelcomes members with a range of public engagement backgrounds.

Physics Frontiers Centers (PFCs)
The Physics Frontiers Centers (PFC) program supports university-based centers and institutes where the collective efforts of a larger group of individuals can enable transformational advances in the most promising research areas. The program is designed to foster major breakthroughs at the intellectual frontiers of physics by providing needed resources such as combinations of talents, skills, disciplines, and/or specialized infrastructure, not usually available to individual investigators or small groups, in an environment in which the collective efforts of the larger group can be shown to be seminal to promoting significant progress in the science and the education of students. PFCs also include creative, substantive activities aimed at enhancing education, broadening participation of traditionally underrepresented groups, and outreach to the scientific community and general public.Ìý.
