The 2025 edition of the IEEE European School of Information Theory (ESIT), organized by the Italy Section Chapter of the IEEE Information Theory Society in collaboration with the COST Action 6G-PHYSEC (CA22168), will be held in Ancona (Italy) from May 4th to May 9th2025. The venue will be the Domus Stella Maris, Via di Colle Ameno 5, Ancona (Italy). The school is also part of the activities of Mission 6 – PhD Programs of the RESTART project, funded by the European Union – NextGenerationEU under the Italian National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR).

This year’s topics of the school include Shannon and coding theory, physical layer security, code-based cryptography, cloud-integrated networks, artificial intelligence and continual learning, reconfigurable intelligent surfaces, and integrated sensing and communication. The school features two types of lectures: tutorial lectures, delivered in the morning and having a duration of 3 hours (including a break and a final Q&A session), and lightning lectures, delivered in the afternoon and having a duration of 1 hour (including a final Q&A session). Tutorial lectures provide the student with a comprehensive introduction to a topic, covering its several facets and most promising research directions. Lightning lectures, instead, address a more specific research problem discussing cutting-edge solutions and techniques.
