Modern Trends in
Gravity and Black Holes

The workshop aims to bring together Mathematicians and Physicists who work in theories of gravity to discuss modern trends in classical and quantum gravity and black hole physics.

We expect to have on average two 1.5-hour review talks per day that will introduce a hot topic with emphasis on open problems with plenty of time for discussion and interaction. 

The meeting will take place at the University of Crete in Heraklion, Greece.
Location: Department of Mathematics
Directions: Enter the math department and look to the signs for wing E. The room E.324 is located one floor up at the end of wing E.

Participation is by invitation only. If you would like to participate please contact one of the organizers.
