PASCOS 2011 will be held in Cambridge UK. The conference will be hosted by the Centre for Theoretical Cosmology (DAMTP) at the Mathematical Sciences site in the University of Cambridge. The aim of the conference is to explore and develop synergies between particle physics, string theory and cosmology. There will be an emphasis on timely interdisciplinary topics:


• critical tests of inflationary cosmology
• advances in fundamental cosmology
• applications of string theory (AdS/CMT)
• particle and string phenomenology
• new experimental particle physics results
• and cosmological probes such as
• the cosmic microwave background,
• galaxies and large-scale structure.
