Europe/Rome The aim of the Biennial Africal School of Fundamental Physics and Application is to build capacity to harvest, interpret, and exploit the results of current and future physics experiments and to increase proficiency in related applications. Due to Covid-19 pandemic, the 2020 edition of ASP had to be postponed. It is now being organized in a virtual format: from 19 to 30 July 2021, online lectures, tutorials and workshops will be held for selected students from all over Africa. Main topics: Nuclear and Particle Physics; Astrophysics and Cosmology; Accelerators, Radiation and Medical Physics; Materials Physics, Nanoscience; Biophysics, Fluid and Plasma Physics, Atomic & Molecular Physics; Light Sources and Neutron Sources; Theoretical & Applied Mechanics, Earth Science; Physics Education; Renewable Energies and Energy Efficiency. Please visit the website of the African School of Fundamental Physics and Applications for further details. The Scientific Programme of ASP 2021 is available here. Online - ICTP pio@ictp.it

Europe/Rome An ICTP Virtual Meeting ICTP's annual Spring School on Superstring Theory and Related Topics provides pedagogical treatment of those subjects through lectures by some of the world's top string theorists. The activity is intended for theoretical physicists or mathematicians with knowledge of quantum field theory, general relativity, and string theory. It is organized in collaboration with the Italian Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN). Topics: Holography with Averaging Aspects of the Swampland Symmetries, Anomalies and Topology Lecturers: A.

**DEADLINE: 05/09/2021**

Europe/Rome An ICTP Virtual Meeting The event will bring together physicists working on various topics in physics that utilize generalized cohomology theories, as well as mathematicians working on functorial quantum field theories and their classification, topological modular forms, cobordisms, and other cohomology theories that appear in physics problems. Topics: Classification of symmetry protected topological states (SPTs) and anomalies in QFTs via cobordisms, with applications to condensed matter, particle physics and beyond standard model theories. The mathematical counterpart is classification of extended invertible topological QFTs, defined on manifolds with various structures. Classification of supersymmetric QFTs via generalized cohomology theories such as KO (real K-theory), TMF (topological modular forms), and their possible generalizations. Construction of new renormalization group flow invariants generalizing (flavored) Witten index. Swampland program and cobordisms. Cobordisms with extra structures that appear in quantum gravity, String theory and M-theory. Registration: there is no registration fee. Online - ICTP pio@ictp.it
