This meeting is one of activities of GenHET (Gender in High Energy Theory) and will address the latest advancements in string theory and discuss gender-related and equal opportunities issues in this field.
Alongside research talks, there will be discussions and panel sessions focused on gender issues in academia, and a workshop specifically designed to discuss and implement strategies that support women and other underrepresented groups in physics.
Young participants can apply to give a talk before February 29. Additionally, financial support for local expenses is possible upon request. See more details on the registration page.
Since any positive change needs the support of the whole community we encourage everyone, scientists of any gender and career stage, to participate in this workshop.
