The LHC, Dark Matter and Beyond

The discovery of the Higgs boson at the LHC is one of the greatest scientific achievements of this century.   Still, despite the anticipation, no unambiguous signal of physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics has been observed at colliders or at experiments that search for dark matter. In this talk I will review the current theoretical and experimental state of particle physics, in light of dark matter experiments and the LHC results.  I will then discuss future directions.
