DESCRIPTION:The MINOS and MINOS-Plus long-baseline neutrino experiments op
 erated at the Fermi Laboratory between 2003 and 2016. Both phases of the e
 xperiment comprised a pair of kiloton-scale steel-scintillator detectors\,
  situated 1km and 735km along the central axis of the NuMI accelerator neu
 trino beam. MINOS operated in a low-energy beam configuration until 2012\;
  MINOS-Plus subsequently ran in the upgraded medium-energy NuMI beam. Both
  MINOS and MINOS-Plus made precise measurements of neutrino oscillations\,
  and also performed searches for new phenomena beyond the standard model o
 f neutrino oscillations\, such as light sterile neutrinos. While the MINOS
 /MINOS-Plus data-taking now over\, the data analysis is continuing. In thi
 s talk\, I will present the latest results on neutrino oscillations\, comb
 ining data from both phases of the experiment. I will also discuss a recen
 t joint analysis of the accelerator data from MINOS/MINOS-Plus with the re
 actor data from the Daya Bay and Bugey-3 experiments\, which has yielded s
 trong constraints on light sterile neutrinos.
