Perimeter Institute recognizes that a lively program of conferences and workshops is essential to maintaining a dynamic scientific atmosphere by regularly exposing its research staff to current ideas in the wider theoretical physics community.  We welcome proposals from individuals or groups of scientists interested in organizing and presenting a workshop or conference at Perimeter Institute in one of the following research areas:

• Cosmology
• Particle Physics
• Quantum Foundations
• Quantum Gravity
• Quantum Information
• Superstring Theory
• Condensed Matter
• Complex Systems

The Institute offers a lecture theatre (seating capacity 205), two smaller seminar rooms (seating 50 and 40), informal meeting areas and lounges, meals and refreshments in the Black Hole Bistro, offices for organizers and work space for participants.

Outstanding proposals which compliment ongoing activities at the Institute will receive financial support per the attached guidelines. Submissions will be strengthened by the inclusion of external financial partners. The Institute, through its Conference Coordinator will work with the organizers and take care of the logistical details.
