4th PI/UT/CITA Workshop (CIAR Cosmology & Gravity Focus Group)

COVID-19 information for PI Residents and Visitors

Conference Date: 
Thursday, May 13, 2004 (All day)

 

This mini-workshop will be the next of an ongoing series of one-day meetings between researchers at Perimeter, CITA and University of Toronto. These meetings are held to share new ideas and encourage interactions in our common fields of interest: superstrings, cosmology, particle theory and quantum gravity.

 

The meeting will be held at the Perimeter Institute on Thursday May 13. As usual, the format of the meeting will be a series of short 30-minute talks to seed informal discussion. The seminars will start at 11am in the PI seminar room.
