6–9 March 2023

University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA USA

The Strings and Geometry 2023 conference is a continuation of the series of conferences that stem from the meetings “Physics and Geometry of F-theory”, established in 2012. In 2019, the conference was renamed “Geometry and Strings 2019”  in order to signify the broadening of the range of topics so as to attract a broader community with an interest in the interplay between geometry and string theory.
