Bristol Junior Algebra and Combinatorics Seminar
The Bristol Junior Algebra and Combinatorics Seminar is a seminar series primarily aimed at PhD students and postdocs in algebra and combinatorics. The aim of the seminar is to provide junior researchers in algebra and combinatorics the opportunity to talk about their work or any topic of their interest in those areas in a friendly and informal context. People from other areas of mathematics that are interested in algebra and combinatorics are also most welcome to attend.
The seminar takes place on Wednesdays from 2.30 to 3.30 pm at Room G.07 in the Fry Building. Please see the schedule below for more information.
If you are interested in giving a talk, suggesting future speakers, or signing up for the seminar mailing list, please do not hesitate to get in touch with one of the organisers:
