This is the 2016 edition of a series of Italian National Meetings on Theoretical Physics traditionally referred to as "Convegni di Fisica Teorica di Cortona". In view of the coincidence with the 10th anniversary since the starting of the activities of the Galileo Galilei Institute, this year the Meeting will exceptionally take place in Arcetri, Florence. The first afternoon, on May 17th, will be dedicated to the GGI 10th anniversary celebration; the regular Conference will start on May 18th in the morning and it will end on May 20th in the evening. The aim of the Conference, keeping its tradition, is to discuss some of the most recent exciting advances in many areas of theoretical physics, in the pleasant early-Summer atmosphere of Galileo's hill. A good participation of young researchers including graduate students and postdoc fellows, alongside more senior researchers, is one of the characteristics of this Meeting, which we hope to maintain. There will be a number of plenary talks as well as shorter presentations by the participants. Interested people are kindly invited to register as soon as possible, providing the title and abstract of her/his proposed talk.
