A main purpose of the meeting is to increase the awareness among early stage researchers from the Mediterranean area about the programmes of the Humboldt Foundation and promote the cooperation between Humboldt fellows of the region. Workshop Topics Include: Functional Renormalization approach to Quantum Gravity (QG), Noncommutativity in the String framework, QFT on curved spaces, Matrix Models, Quantum symmetries of quantum space-time, Strings approach to QG, Quantum Cosmological Perturbations, QG Noncommutative Aspects, Loop QG, Tensor FT in QG, Overview on Noncommutative Geometry Invited Speakers: C.
