DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Jonathan Engle (Florida Atlantic University)\, Muxin
  Han (Florida Atlantic University)\n\n\nPoster designed by Keyii Visual St
 udio  \n \n \nLoops‘24 is the most recent in a long tradition of bi
 ennial meetings focused on loop quantum gravity and background independent
  approaches to quantum gravity\, happening from May 6 - May 10\, 2024\, at
  Florida Atlantic University and Broward County Main Library in Fort Laude
 rdale\, Florida\, USA. \n \nThe conference will highlight recent develop
 ments in canonical loop quantum gravity\, covariant loop quantum gravity (
 spin foams)\, and other approaches to quantum gravity\, as well as applica
 tions to symmetry-reduced models\, quantum cosmology\, black holes in quan
 tum gravity\, and other topics. Foundational\, mathematical\, numerical\, 
 and phenomenological aspects will be covered.\n \nAs a related event\, th
 e Loop Quantum Gravity Summer School 2024 (Blaumann School for Quantum Gr
 avity) will be held at the same place one week before the conference\, fro
 m Apr 29 - May 3\, 2024. \n \nConfirmed Plenary Speakers:\n\nSeth Asante
