will prepare graduate students,
postdoctoral fellows and general members to a level where they can
participate fully in the program activities. The workshop speakers
include Charles Doran (Alberta), Mark Gross (San Diego), Klaus Hulek
(Hannover), Radu Laza (Stony Brook), Bernd Siebert (Hamburg), Johannes
Walcher (McGill), and Noriko Yui (Queen's) among others. Details of
the summer school will be posted on the thematic program webpage as
they become available.
Anyone who is interested in attending the summer school should
register online. Limited funding for local accommodation is available.
For travel expenses, participants are urged to seek funding from
their home institutions/countries.
