String Theory Lectures
The ICTS-Infosys string theory  lectures are delivered by leading physicists in current areas of  research in string theory as well as closely related  areas influenced by developments in string theory.  These lectures start at a level suited to a  beginning graduate student and  advance to  current  open ended research problems  in these topics.
