Dear colleagues,

We would like to announce this year's edition of Petnica Summer 
Institute (PSI 2026), to be held at Petnica Science Center, Serbia on 
August 1 - August 11 2026. PSI is a summer school aimed mainly at junior 
PhD and MSc students. Two schools are held in parallel: the theory 
school on Quantum Gravity and Quantum Chaos and the phenomenology school 
on Dark Universe. The schools will include lectures, problem solving and 
independent work.

Topics - Quantum Gravity and Quantum Chaos: classical and quantum chaos, 
black hole physics & basics of holography, JT/SYK correspondence, random 
matrix theory, near-extremal black holes in string theory, matrix model 
building, Liouville quantum gravity

Topics - Dark Universe: introduction to dark matter and dark energy, 
axions and the ultra-light frontier, large-scale structure, dark matter 
model building, direct and indirect detection, gravitational wave probes
