About
Introduction
To provide some background, the National Center for Theoretical Sciences (NCTS) in Taiwan and the Korean Institute for Advanced Study (KIAS) have a longstanding partnership, formalized through an MOU signed several years ago. Over the years, these institutions have collaborated on joint activities, particularly in high-energy physics. In 2023, we expanded this collaboration to condensed matter physics by organizing the inaugural NCTS-KIAS Workshop on Ab Initio Approaches to Quantum Materials. This first workshop, held on April 27–29, 2023, at the NCTS on the National Taiwan University (NTU) campus in Taipei, Taiwan, focused on developments in ab initio methodologies and their applications in quantum materials.
The success of the 2023 event led to the 2024 NCTS-KIAS Workshop on Ab Initio Approaches to Quantum Materials, hosted by KIAS in Seoul, Korea, from April 17–19, 2024.
We are excited to announce that the 2025 NCTS-KIAS Workshop on Theoretical Approaches to Quantum Materials will take place from April 17–19, 2025, at National Sun Yat-sen University in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.
Notes
1. The talks will be given by the invited speakers only but a limited number of poster presentations will be accepted.
2. For Poster Presenters, please submit the title and abstract of your poster by April 7 (Monday) by emailing it to us. Thank you.
3. The normal registration is open until the end of April 2, 2025 (Wednesday). The number of participants is limited, max. 100 participants.
4. We will prepare lunch boxes for the participants, who choose the meal options in the registration form.
***5. There will be a banquet dinner for all the workshop participants on April 18.
Please register before April 7 if you'd like to join the dinner, for restaurant arrangement. Thank you very much.***
About NCTS and KIAS
The National Center for Theoretical Sciences (NCTS) was established in 1997 by the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC), with strong endorsement from some of the most eminent scholars, including Professors Chen Ning Yang and Shing-Tung Yau. NCTS is now located on the campus of the National Taiwan University, Taipei, with National Taiwan University acting the host. NCTS is committed to contributing to the advancement of frontier research, empowering talented students\postdoctoral researchers and young scholars, networking the local researchers with other scholars and preeminent institutions in the world.

About National Sun-Yet sen University
NSYSU's beautiful campus sits at the crossing of hills and sea in Sizihwan, adjacent to the Kaohsiung Harbor. The geography prompts its feature advancements in marine science research, which heeds Kaohsiung's aspiration to develop into the country's Ocean Capital as the University becomes Taiwan's leading academic institution of marine sciences.
NSYSU has partnerships with more than 280 international institutions in 44 countries, engaging in various programs such as student exchanges, dual degree programs, research collaborations, and joint symposiums. The University remains committed to providing an internationalized campus environment that welcomes and supports local and international students and faculty in learning, teaching, and research.
