Lectures on Scattering Amplitudes via AdS/CFT
  We review recent progress on computing scattering amplitudes of planar N=4 super Yang-Mills at strong coupling by using the AdS/CFT duality. We do explicit computations by using both, dimensional regularization and a cut-off in the radial direction. Up to an additive constant independent on the kinematics, the finite piece of the amplitude is the same in both regularizations. The later scheme is particularly appropriate for understanding the conformal properties of the amplitudes.
