The final event of the PRIN (Italian Research Project of National Interest) "String Theory as a Bridge between Gauge Theory and Quantum Gravity" will be a three-day conference that will take place at Sapienza University of Rome from 17 to 19 February 2025.
This project is a collaboration between theoretical physics groups at INFN, SISSA, University of Roma Tor Vergata, Turin University, University of Piemonte Orientale, and Sapienza University of Rome.
The topics of the workshop will range from gravitational wave phenomenology to modern approaches to scattering amplitudes, from quantum field theories in the presence of defects to the construction of novel theories with (broken) superconformal symmetry, from cosmological perturbations to highly excited strings and black-hole microstates.
