Description

The 2026 IITB-CFNS-CTEQ School on Perturbative QCD for EIC   8_to_15 February 2026

The school will be hosted by the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IITB) in collaboration with CTEQ Collaboration and the Center for Frontiers in Nuclear Science (CFNS) of  Stony Brook University

The 2026 IITB-CFNS-CTEQ School on Perturbative QCD for EIC will be held 8 to_15 February 2026 at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IITB) in Mumbai, India.

The school is ideally suited for advanced graduate students, postdocs, and junior faculty, with a curriculum that includes a focused introduction to perturbative quantum chromodynamics, along with applications and recent experimental results. It will also offer "hands-on" tutorial sessions on Monte Carlo event generators.

There is no registration fee for the school. Accommodations are available (on a paid basis) at the IIT Bombay Guest House. Limited financial assistance is available to support some participants in the IIT Bombay hostel.   Note: participants arrive on the evening of Sunday, 8 February 2026, and depart in the morning of Sunday, 15 February 2026.
