Richard Brito was a plenary speaker at the 2025 IAS Program on Fundamental Physics, where he gave a talk on "Gravitational waves and ultralight bosons". The conference was held at the HKUST Jockey Club Institute for Advanced Study at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. The conference brought together experts working on interdisciplinary topics that bridge high-energy physics with astronomy and cosmology.
While in Hong Kong, Richard is also visiting Otto Hannuksela's gravitational wave group at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, to learn about the research the group is doing and to foster his long-standing collaboration with Otto.
