Overview: The two events will bring together symplectic geometers, low dimensional topologists, and algebraic topologists. The main goal will be to explore the use of homotopy theoretic methods in Floer theory. The summer school will cover background material, aimed at familiarizing students and researchers with the material in each of the three fields. It will be followed by a research conference.
