The 41st Lattice Conference took place at the University of Liverpool, United Kingdom, from July 28th to August 3rd, 2024.
Originally started as a forum for particle physicists to discuss recent developments in lattice gauge theory, especially lattice QCD describing the strong force between quarks and gluons, nowadays the conference is the largest of its type and has grown to include areas like algorithms and machine architectures, quantum computing, physics beyond the Standard Model, and strongly interacting phenomena in low-dimensional systems.

- Georg Bergner (Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena)
- Shohini Bhattacharya (Los Alamos National Laboratory)
- Shailesh Chandrasekharan (Duke University)
