Get ready for "a Time Travel" in Turin, Italy, from October 14 to 20, 2012

The conference focuses on causality and nonlocality in physics, with emphasis on their relation with time machines.

There are three main objectives before this conference: (i) revive the interest in time travel, which is not prohibited by current laws of physics, (ii) provide the opportunity for debating the views of General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics on time travel, and (iii) contribute toward a comprehensive vision for the years to come including anticipations of potential applications.
