The Yukawa Institute carries traditions of the former Research
Institute for Fundamental Physics as a national research center in
theorerical physics to serve for the entire community of theoretical
physicists in Japan and to promote international collaborations in
theoretical physics. It hosts more than ten workshops annually in all
subfields of theoretical physics. Topics of recently organized
workshops and some of the planned workshops are listed in the Topics of Workshops. The Yukawa Institute
also hosts biannual Yukawa International Seminars (YKIS),
international schools/workshops which have evolved from the former
Kyoto Summer Institutes. The first YKIS was held in 1987 and it has
been co-sponsored by the Institute for Theoretical Physics, University
of California, Santa Barbara since 1991. For the topics of the past
and future YKIS's see: Topics of YKIS.
These workshops and YKIS's are organized by physicists from
institutions all over Japan. New proposals for workshops are
discussed and approved by the Committee of Research Projects to be
held twice annually (usually, one in July and the other in January) at
the Institute.
