Principal Investigators
The six principal investigators that form the core of the D-ITP programme come from from diverse branches of theoretical physics, and will join forces to study matter at all scales, from subatomic to cosmic, with a unified set of mathematical tools. Together, they bring in 4 Spinoza prizes, 2 ERC Advanced Grants and 1 Nobel prize.
