  1. Welcome to 2013 Cross-Strait Meeting on Particle Physics and Cosmology Xiao-Gang He National Center for Theoretical SciencesPhysics Division

  2. National Center for Theoretical Sciences was established in 1997 by National Science Council .

  3. Main project Sub-project I Sub-project II Natl. Taiwan Univ. (NTU) Natl. Cheng Kung Univ. (NCKU) Natl. Sun Yat-Sen Univ. (NSUYU) Natl. Tsing Hua Univ. (NTHU) Natl. Chiao-Tung Univ. (NCTU) NCTS one project Natl. Central Univ. (NCU)

  4. Physics Division Leadership in Phase III(2009-2014)

  5. Research Activities Scientific activities are carried out by center scientific staffs, by division initiatives (working group, topics program) and by a number of focus groups. Attract internationally well known scientists to come to give lectures The division pays much emphasis on guiding and training our students and postdocs to conduct researches competitive world wide by supporting some of them to attend well known international schools and conferences.

  6. Focus groups 1. AMO: Atomic Molecular Optical Physics, Coordinator: Daw-Wei Wang (NTHU and NCTS) 2. Bio: Complexity and Life, Coordinator: Chi-Lun Lee (NCU), Chun-Chung Chen (NCTS) 3.
