Abstract

In this talk I summarize some recent progress in string theory in understanding the entropy of a class of black holes including corrections to the Bekenstein-Hawking formula. The quantum corrected entropy is in precise numerical agreement with the logarithm of the number of microstates once quantum corrections are correctly taken into account.
