Flavour physics is a fundamental constituent of particle physics and has provided many groundbreaking results. Precision measurements of decays of heavy hadrons allow for stringent tests of the theory of particle physics, which give access to scales of particles beyond the reach of direct searches. LHCb is currently the leading player in flavour physics. In this seminar, the latest LHCb results from Run 1 of the LHC will be discussed as well as first results from data acquired in 2015. The discussion will focus on charm physics, which offers unique opportunities for the discovery of physics beyond the standard model. Highlights of searches for rare and forbidden decays as well as for CP violation will be discussed. This includes new limits on the lepton-flavour violating decay D0 —> e mu and a new measurement of the difference in CP asymmetry in two-body hadronic D0 decays. The seminar will conclude with a brief outlook on prospects of flavour physics with LHCb and beyond.
