The Eurostrings 2024 meets Fundamental Physics UK conference will take place at University of Southampton on Sep 2-6, 2024. The conference aims to bring together researchers from continental Europe and the UK (and elsewhere!) by combining two annual conferences, Eurostrings and Fundamental Physics UK (FPUK). The latter is an STFC-funded virtual theory centre, which coordinates theoretical physicists in the UK who work on formal topics in fundamental physics. The conference will contain review talks, plenary sessions and parallel sessions, with opportunities to contribute talks, both in plenary and in parallel sessions. We invite anyone (especially junior researchers) to submit an abstract for a contributed talk during registration. More details coming soon.

GenHET meeting, April 29-30, 2024
The GenHET meeting in String Theory will take place at CERN, April 29-30, 2024. An important aim of this meeting is to reactivate the discussion on gender-related issues in the field of String Theory, after a few years of quiescence, partly due to the pandemic. The meeting will include scientific talks by Fernando Alday, Dionysios Anninos, Atish Dabholkar, Ruth Gregory, Monica Guica, and Irene Valenzuela, as well as presentations by Marika Taylor (Birmingham) and Melissa Dansy (Western Michigan U) and panel discussions. In addition, young researchers will have the possibility to apply for a 20-minute research talk on topics related to string theory. Registration is now open on the meeting website.

Eurostrings 2022, April 25-29, Lyon
The conference Eurostrings 2022 will take place at Ecole Normale Supérieure in Lyon, from April 25 to April 29, 2022. It is part of a cycle of yearly conferences gathering researchers from all over Europe and elsewhere, working in the areas of quantum field theory, string theory, quantum gravity and related topics. Registration is now open, with a reduced fee available till March 18.
Iberian Strings 2022, Gijón, postponed to March 23-25
Iberian Strings 2022 is the fourteenth installment of the annual meeting of the Spanish and Portuguese String Theory community, where recent developments in the field of supergravity, strings, branes and gauge theory are discussed. Everybody interested in participating in the workshop is invited to register through the conference website.
First meeting of the International Society for Quantum Gravity, Oct 5-7, 2021
The purpose of this meeting is to engage in a scientific dialogue about different approaches to quantum gravity and their interconnections. The focus is on “status reports” on several approaches and overarching topics in quantum gravity. For more details about the programme and if you would like to participate, please register here: https://isqg.org/first-isqg-meeting/
SFT@Cloud 2021, Sep 20-24
The conference SFT@Cloud 2021 will take place online on Sep 20-24. This is an annual meeting for researchers working in string field theory, worldsheet formalism, and related areas in physics and mathematics. For the list of speakers and registration, please see the conference website.
Strings, Fields and Holograms, Ascona, Oct 11-15, 2021
The conference will be held in person and will feature the possibility to participate remotely for those prospective participants for whom the Covid situation makes it impossible or impractical to attend in person. Further information can be found on the conference website.
