I-CMTP 3

A focused program on contemporary methods in theoretical physics.

Researchers discussing a poster during an ISTRINGY meeting in Istanbul

We are pleased to announce the third Istanbul Workshop on Contemporary Methods in Theoretical Physics (I-CMTP). The purpose of the workshop is to discuss and address recent developments and progress on topics such as

Integrability
Conformal field theory
Modern techniques with symmetry

The workshop will be held on August 13-14, 2026, in the Feza Gürsey Seminar Room at the Department of Physics, Boğaziçi University, Istanbul, Turkey.

The workshop is primarily aimed at graduate students and postdoctoral researchers in theoretical physics, mathematical physics, and applied mathematics. Undergraduate students with a strong background in quantum mechanics and general relativity are also welcome to apply.

For Registration: Please complete the registration form.
