This will be the fourth edition of a recurring event in low-dimensional topology and geometric group theory. Our aim is to gather young researchers and PhD students in the area, enabling them to discuss and exchange fruitful ideas in an inclusive and friendly atmosphere. The conference will feature nine research talks and two mini-courses. Junior participants are encouraged to expose their work in a flash talk session.
The deadline for registration is August 25. Limited funds are available for the accommodation of registered participants. The deadline to apply for financial support is July 20.
