Pro(v/b)ing the Swampland

The aim is to gather the leading experts in the fields of string compactifications, Swampland, QFT, CFT, scattering amplitudes, and in general, any techniques that can be used to probe the imprint of gravity at low energies, with an overarching goal of determining which of these are amenable to general proofs in some contexts (like e.g. holography or bootstrap), and to determine where the next frontier of Swampland research lies .

The workshop will take place in-person at the Institute of Theoretical Physics (IFT), Madrid, Spain. You can find directions here.

To attend the workshop, please register here.  We do not provide any reccomended hotels, but anything in the Atocha, Sol or Chamartín areas will be convenient to commute to IFT via Cercanias train.

SOCIAL EVENT: On Wednesday evening we will have a conference dinner (venue TBD), price aprox. 50€, to be paid in cash by each person attending
