New Perspectives in String Theory School

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.
