40 Years of Science at KITP

Описание: Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics (KITP) at UC Santa Barbara is the foremost scientific research facility for theorists in physics and allied fields to explore new ideas and to work together intensely on questions at the leading edges of science. Since its origin in 1979, KITP’s driving force has been the exploration and promotion of new areas of scientific study. We foster international and cross-disciplinary networks, train the next generation of theorists, and engage the public in our collaborative, transformational research.

In addition to our 40-year reputation for excellence in theoretical physics, KITP is pioneering new ways to empower and train the next generation of scientists from a diverse range of backgrounds to pursue groundbreaking research and foster collaborative networks. With your support, we will ensure in perpetuity that for scientists at KITP there are no barriers to discovery.
