The Dutch Research School of Theoretical Physics (DRSTP) organizes the yearly Statistical Physics and Theory of Condensed Matter (SPTCM) school, which is intended for junior PhD students in the research field of condensed matter.

The school will be held in Callantsoog (Noord-Holland, the Netherlands), at the Fletcher Badhotel Callantsoog. Organized by Irene Aguilera Bonet (Universiteit van Amsterdam), Silke Henkes (Universiteit Leiden), and Bureau DRSTP.

Confirmed speakers (and their topics) are:

• Lars Fritz (UU) - Topological insulators
• Natalia Chepiga (TU Delft) - Quantum phase transitions
• Corentin Coulais (UvA, AMOLF) - Metamaterials
  
• Bela Mulder (UU) -  Biophysics at the subcellular scale
  

More information about speakers, program and registration is available on the DRSTP website. Note that the registration deadline is April 28th, 2023.

The Dutch Research School of Theoretical Physics (DRSTP) was established in 1993 to structure and coordinate the graduate education in theoretical physics. The school is a cooperation between the theoretical physics groups of six Dutch universities: University of Amsterdam (UvA), Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VUA), University of Groningen (RUG), Leiden University (UL), Radboud University Nijmegen (RU), Utrecht University (UU) (commissioner) and of the National Institute for Subatomic Physics (Nikhef). In addition, there are several associate members.
