The goal of this workshop is to bring together mathematicians and theoretical physicists working on ideas related to string theory and supersymmetric quantum field theory. There has been a long and fruitful history in the interplay between mathematics and physics. Many ideas in physics have lead to new and exciting developments in mathematics. Conversely, mathematics has led to new powerful techniques that have rendered many problems in string theory soluble.
The workshop intends to bring together researchers working at the intersection between these two fields to summarise current developments and explore future research directions. The meeting will allow for plenty of time for discussions. For information and questions about the workshop please contact the organizers at mathematicsofstringtheory2014@gmail.com

In the past, similar meetings have been held under the title of SMUK 2013 (String Math UK) 2013, and FPUK (Fundamental Physics UK) in 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2011.
