CoMPhy Lab is Moving to Durham University!
Starting July 1st, 2025, the CoMPhy Lab will be relocating to Durham University, UK. We are excited to join the Condensed Matter Physics section in the Department of Physics and continue our research in computational physics and fluid dynamics in our new home.
