| Description |
Developments in superstring theory over the past years have shown the need for a fully non-perturbative formulation of this theory. The conference will focus on aspects of recent research in this direction, with particular emphasis on D branes and their ramifications (such as non-commutative gauge theories, tachyon condensation, applications of K theory, and black hole physics). It will also cover duality symmetries and supermembrane theory, as well as new developments in integrable systems and supersymmetric quantum field theory relevant to M theory.

| Additional Information |
The conference is open to researchers world-wide, whether from industry or academia. Participation will be limited to 100. The emphasis will be on discussion about new developments. The conference fee covers registration, full board and lodging. Grants will be available, in particular for nationals from EU or Associated States under 35.
