*New Approaches to Dark Matter*

The presence of dark matter provides a striking indication that the
Standard Model can not fully describe the physical Universe. I will first
briefly outline the evidence for dark matter and the traditional picture of
WIMP dark matter. Notably, this dark matter scenario can be effectively
constrained via direct detection experiments and the LHC searches as I will
discuss. Subsequently, I shall highlight some distinct alternatives to
WIMPs for which these experimental limits are avoided or relaxed.
Specifically, I will outline models of "Freeze-in", "Asymmetric Dark
Matter", and "Flooded Dark Matter". These alternative scenarios give a very
different picture of cosmology and have distinct signals and constraints
compared to WIMP dark matter.
