What is the space of consistent conformal field theories (CFTs) and of theories of quantum gravity? What are the underlying physical and functional structures of AdS scattering amplitudes and large N CFT correlation functions? Can we construct string and M-theory from precision CFT computations? The conformal bootstrap program continues to generate remarkable insights into the foundational nature of quantum and conformal field theories. In the context of the AdS/CFT Correspondence, these are directly transmuted into bounds on, and properties of, the space of consistent theories of quantum gravity in anti-de Sitter spacetime (AdS). Guided by the core questions listed above and the need for…
