In this talk we will review some recent progress on the computation of anomalous dimensions of heavy operators in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. The approach adopted makes a novel use of the symmetries of the problem. Exactly the same symmetry structures appear in both the field theory and the dual string theory, so that this construction has a natural interpretation in terms of the AdS/CFT correspondence.
