Seminars at CFP
The CFP organizes three research journal clubs on high energy physics (HEP), compact muon solenoid experiment (CMS), condensed matter physics (CMP), and a weekly physics club for students at the University of Science and Technology at Zewail City. It also organizes a formal seminar every Thursday, usually given by external speakers as follows:
