Istanbul Stringy Meeting 2024

The Istanbul Stringy Meeting will be held from December 24 to 26, 2024 at the Department of Physics, Bogazici University, Istanbul, Turkey.

The workshop aims to bring together young researchers in theoretical and mathematical physics. The idea of the workshop is to discuss recent developments and progress in topics such as

  • Physical Mathematics
  • Supersymmetric gauge theories
  • Non-perturbative quantum field theories
  • AdS/CFT correspondence
