Orbit Meetings take place on Wednesday afternoons three times a year across the Universities of Birmingham, Manchester and Warwick. The meetings focus on topics in group theory and representation theory. Attendees from any university are welcome at the meetings.

Upcoming meetings

The final meeting of the 2025-2026 academic year has taken place. The next meeting will held at the University of Birmingham in November 2026. Further details will be made available later in the year.

PhD Students

We strongly encourage PhD students to attend Orbit Meetings. These meetings are a great way to get know other people working in the field at nearby universities. To enable this, we will help towards travel costs for PhD students (see details here).

Funding

The Orbit Meetings are supported by a London Mathematical Society Scheme 3 Grant and by the Isaac Newton Institute and the Heilbronn Institute (Additional Funding Programme for Mathematical Sciences, delivered by EPSRC EP/V521917/1).
