Conference Definition and 89 Threads

Jose Figueroa is in the Math Physics group at Edinburgh and his research centers on string and susy: http://www.maths.ed.ac.uk/~jmf/ There was a big conference in Poland just now (ending today 3 July) which was interesting partly because it was mixed. Stringers gave talks alongside nonstring...

Got an ok to do a poster presentation at a neuroscience conference in Honk Kong. I am not sure whether my budget can stretch. I heard that grants are available which will cover half these costs. Anybody know anything about these grants, if traveling from Britain ?

Conference papers..... Hi, I am new to this forum and also to this field of electrical engineering which also includes the topis of electronics. I want to know about the link of the institute of the best conference and technical papers... Which are the best institutes to submit such...

http://www.perimeterinstitute.ca/Events/The_Clock_and_the_Quantum/Abstracts/ The week ending 2 October there was a conference on time and quantum theory at Perimeter. Some who gave talks were Lee Smolin Roger Penrose Neil Turok Leonard Susskind William Unruh Rafael Sorkin ... The link gives...

This is definitely a Social Science thread because it deals with the rapidly changing relations between the string and non-string quantum gravity research communities. The changing picture admittedly stems from current theoretical physics developments, and it its apt to have repercussions on...

I have been researching with a professor for the past semester and he recently told me that I will be listed as third author on a conference presentation he will be making this summer. I'd like to cite this on my resume, but I do not know how to cite it correctly, if there even is a correct...

Here is the program of talks. http://www.sissa.it/app/QGconference/program.htm The homepage does not have a link to the program, that I could find. But it has some interesting additional information. Central theme is QG phenomenology, that is: studying ways to test the different QG models...

http://www.ntu.edu.sg/ias/home/cny85+birthday+home.htm Should be a great event... The website isn't ready for registration and other info yet though. Anyone feel like going? :biggrin:

Registration deadline for Loops '07 is coming up deadline for early registration is 25 April late registration in May. Looks like most splendid Loops conference yet (even includes string as a small auxilliary sub-department :smile: See Rozali's talk further down the page) TOPICS COVERED *...

"One of the most famous photos in the history of physics captures the illustrious participants at the fifth Solvay Conference in Brussels, October 1927. Twenty-nine physicists, the main quantum theorists of the day, came together to discuss the topic “Electrons and Photons”. Seventeen of the 29...

What Makes A Memorable Conference Session?? As the title says: "What Makes A Memorable Conference Session??" I have been contacted about organizing and chairing a conference/workshop session and I'd like to know what you would suggest I do to help facilitate the smooth running of one...

five days at Perimeter, the week starting 4 december. two cosmology sessions two QG sessions two string sessions two on quantum information one on quantum foundations young researchers only. sounds like a good idea to me. what do you think? Laurent Freidel is one of the organizers. I guess it...

I do not know if he is going, but Carl happens to have a 25 min talk allocated next Wednesday, before Koide's talk: http://www.phys.hawaii.edu/indico/sessionDisplay.py?sessionId=116&confId=3 It is a middle-to-long talk, but too early morning, fortunately Koide will follow so people has...

this is the September conference that Francesca told us about, we have a bit more information about it now, like the title of Gerard 't Hooft's paper, which was "TBA" when I looked at the programme earlier I looked for some abstracts or slides, but i could not find any online. Maybe Francesca...
