Dear Colleague!

We are happy to inform you that the 4^th International Winter School-Seminar on gravity, cosmology, and astrophysics «Petrov School» will take place from November, 26 to December, 1 2018 in the Institute of Physics of Kazan Federal University.

The objective of the Winter Petrov School is to preserve and develop the high potential of the Russian scientific school in theory of gravity, astrophysics, cosmology and related areas of physics and mathematics.

Programme of the School will include invited lectures by the leading scientists. Also, scientists participating the School will be able to present their research during the Seminar sessions.
