Aspen Center for Physics


“The Aspen Center for Physics provides a stimulating, inspiring and beautiful surrounding for discussions, exchange of concrete research ideas, catching up on what others are working on, and gathering feedback on one's own research.”

Physics in Aspen




The summer and winter experiences in Aspen vary from limited talks in the summer to a schedule full of presentations in the winter. Summer workshops have two or three half–day formal sessions leaving the rest of your week for individual work or informal collaborations. Winters are run on conference schedules with a full slate of talks from about 8 am to 11 am resuming at about 4 pm to 7 pm This leaves the middle of the day free for outdoor pursuits or informal chats.

Applications are available in early September for both the winter and summer programs.
