ISTA cross-disciplinary research institution, our research groups interact with each other across the boundaries of traditional disciplines. So it’s not only about physics or biology or chemistry or mathematics — but also all the varieties in between. You can also find more information on upcoming Talks, Events and Courses on the dedicated Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics site Physics & Beyond page.
