The objectives of the Student Conference are to give prospective and current students a deeper look into the mathematical landscape in Berlin by learning about other students' projects, and also to provide students with the opportunity to practice giving talks in a relaxed conference atmosphere.

Invited Speakers:

On Wednesday afternoon we had a guided tour at the Traenenpalast ("Palace of tears"), next to Friedrichstraße Bahnhof. The tour took participants through a checkpoint linking former east and west Germany.

The annual Wine and Cheese evening also took place in the BMS lounge on Thursday February 18.

Topics and Abstracts:
All speakers were tasked with presenting interesting mathematical topics suitable for a masters' level audience with a general mathematics background. These included examples of a bachelor's or master's thesis, ongoing PhD projects, and a variety of other any interesting results the speakers were enthusiastic about.

The full list of abstracts can be found in the conference program, the pdf of which is accessible at this link.
