It will soon be 20 years since the Ogden Centre for Fundamental Physics at Durham University was opened. To celebrate our 20th birthday we are hosting a symposium on 'Five key questions about the Universe.' Professor Jim Peebles, 2019 Nobel Prize in Physics winner, will be giving the opening keynote speech. We hope that you will join us for this exciting event.
