SUSY status after one year of LHC

Abstract

I review the status of supersymmetry after the 2011 LHC search results. I concentrate in particular on interpretations beyond the conventional CMSSM, including i) natural SUSY with light stops, and ii) the so-called phenomenological MSSM, which is a general parametrization of the MSSM at the weak scale, without boundary conditions imposed by specific SUSY breaking schemes. We will see that the current searches are not yet sensitive to some of the theoretically most interesting scenarios.
