1st BrAG meeting

The first British Algebraic Geometry meeting (BrAG) took place at the Mathematics Institute at University of Warwick, September 22-24, 2014.

BrAG will become a series of regular meetings of British algebraic geometers. Our goal is to create a series that further strengthens the British algebraic geometry community, in particular by integrating PG students and young researchers. The first meeting will feature a number of pre-talks for graduate students, a poster session, and will include plenty of time for informal interactions between the participants.
