Strings 2021 is an annual conference that brings together the entire string theory community. Besides reviews of major developments in the field and specialized talks on specific topics, an important novelty will be several informal discussions involving two researchers and the conference participants. There will also be a public lecture and outreach activity “Ask a String Theorist” during the weekend. 

Strings 2021 will be held online during the two-week period June 21 – July 2, 2021 from 9:30 – 15:00 in São Paulo (8:30 – 14:00 in NY, 14:30 – 20:00 in Paris).

Local nodes will be coordinated worldwide for the joint viewing of talks and discussion sessions, and online satellite meetings during other time periods will be linked on this webpage. There will also be a gong show session of 5-minute talks by PhD students and a poster session using Zoom breakout rooms.
