Coronavirus Update (12 March):
It is with great regret we have been forced to cancel the Oxford Applied Topology School.
We have resisted cancellation, but unfortunately our participant accommodation has been cancelled and two of our three lecturers have been prevented from travelling.
We are hoping to reschedule the School to take place at a later date.
Apologies for the disruption caused by this exceptional set of circumstances!
