[DMANET] 26th Postgraduate Combinatorial Conference, Oxford, UK

The 26th Postgraduate Combinatorial Conference (PCC) will be held this year from Monday 10th June to Wednesday 12th June at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford. The PCC is an established conference organised by, and for, current research students in all areas of combinatorial and discrete mathematics. It is mainly aimed at UK-based students, but also open to those from abroad. The aim of the conference is to allow research students to discuss their research in a relaxed environment, to gain practice at presenting their research outside of their own department, and to meet other early career researchers in their area. Each student is encouraged to contribute by giving a talk which will last 25 minutes (including 5 minutes question and answer time).

Registration is now open via https://pcc2019.github.io/ and the invited speakers are Imre Leader (Cambridge), Natasha Morrison (Cambridge/Rio) and Ben Barber (Bristol).

Since accommodation in Oxford is rather difficult to find, especially during term time, we encourage participants to book accommodation as soon as possible. There are various good options on Airbnb, and some suggestions can also be found on the conference website.

Best wishes from the conference organisers,

Carla Groenland (groenland@maths.ox.ac.uk)
Candy Bowtell (bowtell@maths.ox.ac.uk)
James Aaronson (aaronson@maths.ox.ac.uk)
Tom Johnston (johnstont@maths.ox.ac.uk)
