If you have a question about this talk, please contact Shahar Hadar.

I will discuss screened, modified gravity models. These models behave differently in sparse environments than dense ones such that a fifth force is screened in the solar system, but not cosmologically. I will discuss the motivation for such models and possible ways to test them in the laboratory and in regions of strong gravity around astrophysical black holes.
