The new IMA Seminar Series for the coming academic year (2010/2011) will start in October.

 

Organisational Notes

 

The main purpose of the seminars is to disseminate the research carried out by the members of the IMA Research Group. Furthermore, we organise introductory tutorials on subjects relevant to the research group. We also very much welcome external speakers that would like to present their work in areas related to those of the research group.

Seminars and tutorials are open to anyone who is interested in the topics presented. Free sandwiches and tea/coffee will be provided during the event, but please bring your own mugs!
