Europe/Zurich timezone

The Basics of Quantum Gravity online school is a series of lectures on the key concepts and techniques involved in the research of Quantum Gravity. It is dedicated to young researchers who are tackling this great challenge in theoretical physics. The goal is to bridge several paths and approaches to quantum gravity and provide young researchers with the tools to work on all of these frameworks and utilize various formalisms.

The second edition of this series will run throughout Europe's winter and summer of 2026. The repository, containing the videos of the first edition, is available here

This is an initiative by the International Society for Quantum Gravity. It will be followed by a series of workshops on more advanced topics.

Details: The lectures will be conducted online, and the Zoom link will be emailed. The series will be recorded and made available online. To receive the links to the lectures by email, please register for the event. There is no registration fee applied. 

Level: The lectures are open to everybody interested in quantum gravity, but are primarily intended for young researchers in theoretical physics (from Master level), already familiar with quantum mechanics, quantum field theory and general relativity.

Organizing Committee: Alicia Castro, Renata Ferrero, Iva Lovrekovic, V H Satheeshkumar
