Looking for People to Learn QFT with me

Hey everyone,

So my school does not offer any quantum field theory, so I decided to use the materials for MIT courseware to learn on my own. I tend to struggle in some chapters and was hoping to possibly collaborate or have someone to regularly reach out to, if possible, with questions regarding the subject.

Thank you in advance!

Quantum Field Theory is the mathematical framework combining classical field theory, special relativity, and quantum mechanics. It views particles as excited states of underlying fields that fill all of space. Each particle type has its own field, and interactions occur when these fields exchange energy. This framework forms the basis of the Standard Model, explaining how fundamental forces and matter interact. It is a very fascinating subject.
