Registration is closed.

There are no attendance fees, but registration is mandatory.

Support. There will be limited support for young US participants. There might also be limited support for non-US participants, depending on funding. To apply for support, please check “Apply for support” in the registration form and subsequently upload your CV using the link below and the password you received after registration. The deadline for support applications is April 15, 2016.

Contributed talks and posters. A very limited number of slots will be available for contributed talks, and a poster session will be organized. In case you would like to contribute a talk or a poster, please mention it during registration, then upload your CV and submit a title and abstract using the link below and the password you received after registration. The deadline for applying for a contributed talk or poster (i.e., registration completed + CV uploaded + title and abstract submitted) is April 15, 2016. You will be notified in the weeks following the deadline whether you are accepted for a talk, a poster, or none.

Title/Abstract. If you are an invited or mini-course speaker, or if you applied for a contributed talk or poster during registration, please submit your title and abstract using the link below and the password you received after registration. The deadline for title and abstract submission for contributed talks and posters is April 15, 2016.

Childcare. We can arrange a few childcare places for children between 6 months and 5 years at a trustworthy nursery that is a ten minutes walk away from the School of Mathematics and Statistics. Please contact Madeleine Jotz Lean before April 15, 2016 if you need to bring little children to Sheffield with you, and prepare the following information:

1. the number and age of the children;

2. the amount of funding available from your department (or else) to support their trip, accommodation and care, and if you need us to help with the costs;

3. if you would like to book a place at the nursery. (This will be around 200 GBP for the week but we can provide partial support for these costs.)

If needed, we can also look into childcare possibilities for older children.

In addition, please note that the London Mathematical Society administers a Childcare Supplementary Grant Scheme to help parents working in mathematics in the UK attend conferences. The applications are considered in three rounds per year and the next deadline is May 15, 2016.
