SUMMARY:The MICROBOONE Neutrino Experiment at Fermilab.\, NPAC (Nuclea
 r/Particle/Astro/Cosmo) Forum\, Wouter Van De Pontseele
DESCRIPTION:MicroBooNE is a liquid argon time projection chamber in th
 e Booster Neutrino Beam at Fermilab. The technology provides high-reso
 lution imaging of neutrino interactions leading to low-threshold event
  reconstruction with full angular coverage. As such\, this is an ideal
  place to probe neutrino-argon interactions in the hundreds-of MeV to 
 few-GeV energy range. This talk presents a start-to-end overview demon
 strating the physics capabilities of the detector. I will talk about c
 osmic ray measurement and characterisation\, our dominant background. 
 Furthermore\, I will describe the flavour-agnostic neutrino pre-select
 ion\, based on the combination of the charge collected by the TPC and 
 the optical information form the PMT system. An overview of recent mea
 surements of neutrino interactions in MicroBooNE\, including inclusive
  charged-current interactions\, will be given. I will conclude summari
 sing the ongoing efforts towards our first low-energy-excess results
