The two talks before lunch are intended as reviews that will be accessible to non-specialists and in particular to postdocs and PhD students, who are warmly invited to attend. A limited amount of funding is available for the reimbursement of travel expenses. We may also be able to make a contribution towards childcare expenses incurred specifically for the purpose of attending the meeting, and furthermore draw your attention to the LMS Childcare Supplementary Grants scheme.

Updates to the programme will be posted here as they become available. Directions to the department can be found here. We are on the top floor of the AA building, which is marked on the campus map. If you need a parking permit, please contact Rebecca Hoyle.

The PANDA network is organised by Rebecca Hoyle (Surrey), Jon Dawes (Bath), Paul Matthews (Nottingham) and Alastair Rucklidge (Leeds), who are grateful for the support of a London Mathematical Society Scheme 3 grant.
