Basic information about the ILQGS
The International Loop Quantum Gravity Seminar (ILQGS) is a research seminar on quantum gravity created by Prof. Jorge Pullin (Louisiana State University) in 2006. The series started as an international phone conference and quickly became the place where latest developments in loop quantum gravity are announced to the world. Between 2006 and 2026, it has hosted more than 350 talks. Today, it is managed by the International Society on Loop Quantum Gravity (ISLQG). The seminar takes place every two weeks—academic holidays excluded. Participants meet over zoom. One day before the seminar, slides are published online.
