Abstract

This talk describes efforts towards a first measurement of the standard model production of four top quarks with results based on up to the full LHC Run 2 dataset collected at CMS at $\sqrt{s}=13\mathrm{TeV}$. It includes interpretations of this measurement to constrain properties of the Higgs Boson and new physics scenarios including dark matter.
