Meeting ID: 384 093 419

-----------------------
In July of 2012, the ATLAS and CMS Experiments announced a major scientific breakthrough: the discovery of a new particle consistent with the Higgs boson predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics.  In the last 8 years, a lot of progress has been made in understanding the properties of this special particle.  In this colloquium, I will re-introduce the Higgs boson and its role in the Standard Model of particle physics, review what we have learned in the first two data-taking runs at the LHC, and finally discuss future Higgs boson physics prospects using the order of magnitude increase in the size of the dataset that will be delivered by the High-Luminosity LHC.
