Cosmology from Home

---

Cosmology from Home is an annual online cosmology conference with an innovative format, which produces a dynamic and collaborative workshop experience within the online domain. The format includes the use of pre-recorded talks, and a combination of asynchronous and scheduled live discussions. A permanently available and freely-navigated discussion space also facilitates ongoing, organic discussions. The conference will bring together cosmologists from around the world to discuss the current state of cosmology at the interface of theory and observations.

This year, the over-arching conference theme will be “interdisciplinary within cosmology”. Not all talks need to be interdisciplinary, but all talks will be heavily encouraged to be aimed at general cosmology researchers, not subject-level experts.

The topics that are discussed include:

• Inflation and the Early Universe,
• Cosmic Microwave Background and Thermal History,
• Large-Scale Structure of the Universe,
• Dark Matter, Neutrinos and Other Particle Astrophysics,
• Modified Gravity, Dark Energy and Foundations of ΛCDM.
• Gravitational Waves and Multimessenger Astronomy,
• Public Engagement, Academic Life, and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
