The Bristol Junior Algebra and Combinatorics Seminar is a series primarily aimed at PhD students and postdocs in algebra and combinatorics. Its goal is to give junior researchers in algebra and combinatorics the opportunity to talk about their work---or any topic of interest in these areas---in a friendly and informal setting. People from other areas of mathematics with an interest in algebra and combinatorics are also very welcome to attend.
The seminar takes place on Wednesdays from 2–3 pm in Room G.07 of the Fry Building. Please see the schedule below for more details.
