Winter Schools of Theoretical Physics
Institute of Theoretical Physics of the University of Wroclaw has been organizing Winter Schools for over 50 years. They started in 1964 and they evolved with time into a well-known international event. The idea of the School is to invite leading physicists from all over the world and give a series of lectures focused on a selected topic. The coming event will be held in Lądek Zdrój - one of the oldest health resorts in Europe.
