Registration Instructions

Online registration for Strings 2001 is now closed.

However, if you would really like to register for the conference, please send us email at strings@theory.tifr.res.in. If we can accommodate your request, we will get back to you.

NOTE: For the many science enthusiasts in Mumbai, we are attempting to organise one or more Public Lectures by some of the distinguished physicists who are coming to Mumbai on this occasion. Information about these lectures will be made available on this website at a later date. Strings 2001 is an advanced scientific conference featuring highly technical seminars. We recommend that you do not attempt to register for, or attend, the conference unless you are a specialist trained in Theoretical Physics.
