Our goal is to utilise recent advances in conformal and quantum field theories to shed new
light on characteristics of theories of quantum gravity. Specifically, we will focus on recent
results from analyses of 2-dimensional conformal field theories and their moduli
spaces. These findings have played a prominent role in novel formulations of
the holographic principle, through which consistent quantum gravity theories are identified.
A few examples of such new developments, which we plan to explore in our proposed
program, are ensemble average holography, twisted holography, and flat space holography.
