ICTP-SAIFR Symposium on Theoretical Physics

On Wednesday, February 5, five outstanding physicists and ICTP-SAIFR council members will present seminars in the areas of string theory, statistical mechanics, quantum mechanics, neutrino physics and general relativity. There will be no application form for this activity and everyone is welcome to participate. For more information, send email to secretary@ictp-saifr.org .
