Special Topic Schools are intensive one-week seminars that provide early-career researchers at all stages with the opportunity to learn about new developments and fundamentally novel methods in a specific area of mathematics. They feature lectures on contemporary, cutting-edge topics given by leading experts in their fields, complemented by open discussions and poster sessions. We invite applications to our schools from interested early-career researchers world-wide.
