We are glad to announce that online application is open until* January 13,
2017* for the *ICTP-SAIFR **School on AdS/CMT Correspondence*
<http://www.ictp-saifr.org/?page_id=13519>, which will take place at
ICTP-SAIFR <http://www.ictp-saifr.org/> at the UNESP campus in São Paulo,
Brazil, in March 27 - April 7, 2017.

This school will provide students with a panorama of current theoretical
problems in condensed matter systems and the tools used to attack them,
with a special emphasis on holographic techniques. The first week of the
school will contain introductory lectures to GR, AdS/CMT, and effective
field theories, setting the foundation for the lectures of the second week
on more advanced topics.

Familiarity with quantum field theory will be assumed. Some familiarity
with supersymmetry, condensed matter theory and general relativity will be
helpful, although an effort will be made to review the necessary material
in these areas.

Best regards,
