Gauge theories, supergravity and superstrings

The aim of the workshop is to discuss problems in fundamental physics. We plan to have a flexible program that includes pedagogical talks and discussion sessions. We may also have informal talks to encourage debate. We hope these will allow those present to learn new ideas and techniques that will help them in their work. It is likely that supersymmetric gauge theories, supergravity, superstrings and other topics such as branes and dualities will be discussed. However, the organisers are open to the presentation of new ideas which are not well known to the community at large.
