Non-relativistic Quantum Gravity: a Status Report

In this talk I will discuss the geometry underlying non-relativistic (super-) string theory. Next, I will discuss the low energy effective action together with some of it’s basic half-supersymmetric brane solutions. The notion of non-relativistic T-duality (and S-duality) will play an important role in this discussion.
