DESCRIPTION:After the historic first detection of gravitational waves by t
 he LIGO and Virgo collaborations in 2015\, the last few years have seen a 
 sequence of detections announced\, including the first gravitational wave-
 multi-messenger observation of merging neutron stars. 2019 should see the 
 start of the third observing run of the LIGO gravitational wave detectors 
 – expected to be the longest duration observing run to date. Professor R
 owan\, University of Glasgow\, will discuss the status of observations\, p
 lans for the global network of advanced gravitational wave detectors and w
 hat the future of the field might look like.
