Welcome to the Institute for Fundamental Theory
The Institute for Fundamental Theory provides theoretical physicists and mathematicians with an intellectual habitat conducive to interdisciplinary contacts. Its purpose is to encourage interactions between high energy theory, condensed matter theory, astrophysics theory, biophysics theory, and mathematics to foster a unified view of these sciences and the commonality of their techniques.
