Description

The International Conference on String Field Theory and Related Aspects VII will be held during 11~15 May 2015 at the Center for Theoretical Physics, Sichuan University (CTP-SCU), Chengdu, China. The conference is devoted to the latest results in string field theory as well as in related fields, such as higher spin theory and double field theory. It is the seventh successive annual conference in the series initiated in 2008. The conference will be preceded by the satellite Introductory School on String Field Theory and Higher Spin Theory during 4~8 May, intended to provide introductory courses for graduate students and young researchers.
