The IMA Early Career Mathematicians' Autumn Conference 2012 will take place at the University of Greenwich on a World Heritage Site on the banks of the River Thames and in the shadow of the Royal Observatory, home of Greenwich Mean Time and the Prime Meridian of the World.
This conference will bring together mathematicians from all walks of life, some of whom have little opportunity to meet other mathematicians, for a day of entertaining and interesting mathematics. This will be the tenth in this series of conferences that I have attended so I know they are a great opportunity for early career mathematicians and students to meet others in similar career stages. Friendships are formed and everyone has a good time. Previous conferences have been described in Mathematics Today reports as "lively and informative", "a friendly and relaxed atmosphere" and "educational, informative and entertaining".
The schedule of talks is given on the Programme page. You will see we start with a hands-on session of puzzles, games and recreational maths, to wake us up and get everyone talking. After lunch, we will hear from four interesting early career mathematicians talking about their work in some diverse areas of mathematics and its applications. Talks will not be maths-heavy (it is the weekend, after all!) and the conference is suitable for anyone with an interest in mathematics.
Following the conference, those who want to will enjoy an informal post-conference dinner nearby at the Café Rouge in Greenwich. Please note that the venue has changed due to popular demand and increasing number of delegates.
I look forward to seeing you in Greenwich!
