We are glad to announce the first workshop on theoretical physics co-organized by Universidad Católica de la Santísima Concepción and Universidad de Concepción. The workshop will be held during March 7th and 8th at Universidad Católica de la Santísima Concepción and during March 9th and 10th at Universidad de Concepción.

The meeting aims to bring together local and international researchers working on theoretical aspects of gravitational physics and related subjects, as well as PhD students and postdoctoral researchers.

Registration deadline: March 3rd, 2022. No fee required. For questions regarding your participation on the meeting and registration please contact us at: julioolivazapata@gmail.com Only the outreach talk will be broadcasted on-line
