We are glad to formally announce the 19th International Symposium on Particles, Strings, and Cosmology (PASCOS 2013) to be held at Taipei, Taiwan, Nov. 20-26, 2013 with website at phy.ncu.edu.tw/hep/pascos2013/ , and cordially invite your participation. *The deadline for talk submission is Sep. 20, 2013.* The aims of the symposium are to review the recent progress in particle physics, string theory and cosmology, promote the exchange of ideas and discuss the future. Although the meeting is mainly aimed at theorists, there will also be a strong experimental component, with discussion of new results and future experiments. We plan on having a program with a comprehensive coverage of all important topic areas and a participant number of 250-300. We also hope to provide an enjoyable program beyond the great physics sharing the natural and cultural beauty of Taiwan. For example, our social program includes the opportunity to attend the 40th anniversary performance production “Rice” of the world-renowned Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan (cloudgate.org.tw/eng/); the founder and key choreographer of which, Mr. Lin Hwai-min, has just won the 2013 Samuel H. Scripps / American Dance Festival Award for Lifetime Achievement in modern dance of The American Dance Festival. Our program plan also includes an excursion, including the Palace Museum (npm.gov.tw/) as one option, and a banquet high up on Taipei 101 ( taipei-101.tw/index_en.html). Invited plenary speakers include representatives from ATLAS, CMS, LHCb, and T2K (T. Kobayashi), F. Bouchet, R. Brandenberger, A. Djouadi, J. Ellis, G. Gabadaze, T. Han, L. Ibanez, E. Komatsu, A. Lukas, K. Olive, F. Quevedo, T. Takayanagi, A. Schwimmer, U. Seliak, J. Valle, and a few more to be confirmed. We also plan on having 30 or more other invited talks so as to give a good coverage of all interesting topic areas. Interested parties may visit our website and sign up as pre-registered immediately , which will ensure you do not miss any information about the program and also allows you to submit a talk, the latter will be reviewed under 11 subject themes each with an international group of 3 invited session conveners starting from July. We are looking forward to seeing you at PASCOS 2013. Kingman Cheung, Pei-Ming Ho, Otto C.W. Kong, Kin-Wang Ng for the PASCOS 2013 Organizing Committee
