The National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (MagLab) will hold its seventh Theory Winter School in Tallahassee, Florida from January 7 to 11, 2019. This year’s theory school is a concerted effort to address several challenges in modern condensed matter physics. Recent computational advances and new analytic insights suggest the need for multifaceted approaches that bring together the study of model Hamiltonians, ab-initio methods and experiments to gain new understanding of quantum materials. This synergy between communities will impact endeavors where theory isguiding new discoveries. The themes of the school are: strongly correlated and quantum spin liquid physics, Weyl and topological physics and new computational techniques.
