Live Stream of the 2014 Salam Lecture Series

ICTP's 2014 Distinguished Salam Lectures, delivered by renowned condensed matter physicist Subir Sachdev, is streamed live on the ICTP Website.  

The week-long series, titled "Theory of Quantum Matter: from Quantum Fields to Strings", runs daily from 27 to 30 January 2014 starting at 16:30 GMT +1 in the ICTP Main Lecture Hall.

To understand the properties of materials at the microscopic level has been the driving force behind the research of Sachdev. Indeed, the past few decades have seen exciting developments in technologically important materials--such as high-temperature superconductors--thanks to a growing understanding of the subatomic world of quantum physics.

Sachdev will talk about these and other quantum-related topics during the lecture series, which is free and open to the public.

Sachdev is a professor of physics at Harvard University, and was also on the physics faculty of Yale University.

The Salam Distinguished Lectures are an annual series of talks by renowned, active scientists to provide a review of important research developments as well as a visionary forward view.
