We will be hosting a Winter School for students and early career researchers at Lancaster University. The event will start at 1pm on Monday 16th December and finish at 1pm on Friday 20th December. 

The school will consist of 4 lecture courses delivered by:

• Paul Hacking (University of Massachusetts, Amherst)

• Enrica Mazzon (Universität Regensburg)

• Franco Rota (University of Glasgow)

• Nikolaos Tsakanikas (École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne)

Accommodation and Travel

We can provide accommodation for participants and cover reasonable travel costs for students and postdocs based in the UK. Regrettably, due to limited funding we cannot support other participants' travel.

Please indicate on the registration form if you would like to apply for accommodation and/or travel funding, and include an estimate of how much travel funding you expect to require. Should we receive more applications than we have funding to cover, accommodation and travel funding will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

To allow us to fund as many participants as possible, we ask that participants purchase "advance" or "off-peak" train tickets where practical. For those under the age of 30, we also recommend looking into getting a railcard, which can offer substantial savings on the cost of train travel around the UK.
