New Perspectives in String Theory School

Jun 08, 2009 - Jun 19, 2009



Abstract
Within the GGI workshop "New Perspectives in String Theory", this two-week school aims to provide an updated introduction to modern trends in String Theory and to offer highly qualified students the tools to tackle interesting emerging problems in such a competitive field. Each lecturers will give a mini-course of two lectures of two hours each.

Registration for the School is no more possible, all available positions have been filled.

Organizers
Costas Bachas (Ecole Normale Superieure, Paris, France), Massimo Bianchi (University of Roma Tor Vergata, Italy), Michel Green (DAMTP, Cambridge University, UK), Jeff Harvey (Chicago University, USA), Augusto Sagnotti (Scuola Normale Superiore, Pisa, Italy), Ashoke Sen (Harish-Chandra Research Institute, Allahabad, India)
