Although quantum mechanics and general relativity are among the most successful theories ever constructed in physics, complications arise when these two theories are combined to describe quantum gravity. This school will discuss several approaches to resolving the complications of quantum gravity which involve different communities of physicists. In addition to lectures by leaders of the different approaches, there will be daily discussion sessions on selected topics. The school is intended for advanced graduate students and researchers and will be followed by the Quantum Gravity in the Southern Cone VI workshop in the Beach Hotel of Maresias from September 11-14.

Start time: September 2

Ends on: September 9

Venue: São Paulo, Brazil

Organizers: Nathan Berkovits (ICTP-SAIFR and IFT-UNESP), Rodolfo Gambini (Montevideo), Olivera Miskovic (Valparaíso), Carmen Núñez (Buenos Aires), Jorge Pullin (Louisiana), Victor Rivelles (USP São Paulo), Jorge Zanelli (CECS Valdivia)

With the recent results from the 2011-2012 LHC runs, including the discovery of a new Higgs-like particle, it is timely to review what was learned and what can be learned in the near future about the High Energy Frontier. The purposes of the School are to provide students with an in-depth understanding of the Standard Model, to familiarize them with aspects of collider physics, to explore what may lay beyond the Standard Model, and to give them the necessary tools to test different models with the newest data.

Start time: April 1

Ends on: April 12

Venue: São Paulo, Brazil

Organizers: Marcela Carena (Fermilab), Aldo Deandrea (Lyon), Ricardo D’Elia Matheus (IFT-UNESP), Rogerio Rosenfeld (ICTP-SAIFR and IFT-UNESP), Giacomo Cacciapaglia (Lyon)

Start time: January 21, 2013 Ends on: February 2, 2013Venue: São Paulo, BrazilOrganizers: M. Clerc (Santiago), R. Kraenkel (São Paulo), P.I. Prado (São Paulo) Lecturers:— Roberto Kraenkel – Institute for Theoretical Physics – São Paulo State University –Introduction to Population Biology Christina Cobbold – School of Mathematics and Statistics – University of Glasgow (Scotland) – Spatial models in ecology In Huffaker’s (1958) classical predator-prey experiments he demonstrated that in order for the two populations to coexist spatial refuges were required for the prey. This is one of several examples that motivate the spatial modelling discussed during these lectures. The lectures are designed to introduce students to approaches currently used to study spatio-temporal interactions in ecology. Lecture 1: Overview of approaches to large scale spatial ecology; introduction to metapopulations; spatial implicit and explicit models. Lecture 2: Individual movement and random walks; diffusion-advection equations; mean first passage time and critical patch size Lecture 3: Invasion; spatio-temporal synchrony; pattern formation. Lecture 4: Introduction to integrodifference equations; numerical solutions; applications. Gabriela Gomes – Instituto Gulbenkian de Ciência (Oeiras-Portugal) – Mathematical Models and Control Strategies of Infectious Diseases (Course_PDF) Cristina Banks-Leite and Ana I. Bento – Imperial College (London, UK) – –Advanced topics in population and community ecology and conservation: 1st lecture: basic modelling concepts, matrix population models, integral projection models (with examples) 2nd lecture: Spatially explicit populations models, metapopulation, epidemiology examples 3rd lecture: metacommunities, niche, neutral e phylogenetic approach to understanding community assembly 4th lecture: species extinction & viability, extinction debts, early warning signals (i.e. criticial slowing down, tipping points), consequences of species loss to ecosystem functioning. Description: This school is aimed at graduate students in Physics, Mathematics, Ecology and Epidemiology, having at least a basic knowledge of calculus and differential equations. The first week will be a basic course on population biology, which is strongly based on  modeling exercises. The second week will consist of three advanced courses on up-to-date topics in ecology and epidemiology. It is possible to apply for participation either for one or two weeks. Undergraduate students with exceptional records are also encouraged to apply. Limited funds are available for travel and local expenses. There is no registration fee. Please notice that acceptance cannot be taken for granted, as we expect a much higher number of applications than the maximum number of participants.  We advise the candidates to carefully complete the application form, providing enough information for the selection committee to take a decision. In order to have a full idea of the kind of activities that take place during the course, please visit the home-page of the first edition of this school at http//www.ictp-saifr.org/mathbio.
