Colloquia on Nuclear Threat Reduction
To build a national network of physicist-advocates on this issue, we are sending experts in nuclear arms control issues to physics and other institutions across the country and abroad to deliver colloquia, recruit physicists to the coalition, and foster local and national advocacy.
Our colloquia are either online or presented at the hosting institution. Interested in attending a colloquium in person?
Encourage your department to request one for your institution by contacting us at [email protected].

These colloquia discuss topics of interest to the Physicists Coalition for Nuclear Threat Reduction, but represent only the views of the speakers.
