Location: Exact address given in confirmation email ? Lecture: "How We Discovered the Building Blocks of Matter" ? Speaker: Dr. Patrick Oare Join us for a mind-expanding evening as theoretical particle physicist Dr. Patrick Oare guides us through the epic story behind the Standard Model of Particle Physics—the most precise description of the fundamental workings of our universe. Dr. Oare will trace how, starting in the early 1900s with special relativity and quantum mechanics, physicists uncovered 17 fundamental particles that form everything we see. Along the way, you’ll hear how quarks and gluons were found inside the proton, how elusive neutrinos were detected in cosmic rays, and how heavier, short-lived cousins of the electron reshaped our understanding of matter. The journey culminates in the 2012 discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider, one of the crowning achievements in modern science. Dr. Oare works at Brookhaven National Laboratory studying lattice quantum chromodynamics, using powerful computations to probe the strong nuclear force. He earned his Ph.D. in physics from MIT in 2024 after completing degrees in Physics and Math at UC Berkeley.
