[DMANET] 22nd Postgraduate Combinatorial Conference 15th - 17th August 2012

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
22nd Postgraduate Combinatorial Conference
15 - 17 August 2012, University of Warwick, UK
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Postgraduate Combinatorial Conference (PCC) is an established annual conference organised by, and for, current research students in all areas of combinatorial and discrete mathematics, under the auspices of the British Combinatorial Committee. The PCC is mainly aimed at UK-based students, but also open to those from abroad.

This year's PCC will be held at the University of Warwick from 15 to 17 August 2012. The aim of the conference is to allow research students to meet and discuss their research in a relaxed environment, to gain practice at presenting their research outside of their own department, and to meet pre-eminent researchers in their area. Each student is encouraged (but not forced) to contribute by giving a talk which will last 20 minutes (including five minutes question-and-answer time). Invited speakers will include:

Stefanie Gerke (Royal Holloway, University of London)
Konrad Swanepoel (LSE)
Andrew Thomason (University of Cambridge)

Registration Deadline: 1st July 2012 (or once we reach capacity)
Deadline for sending talk abstracts: 15th July 2012

The first 30 places will cost £30 GBP (16 such places remaining when this email was sent). After that, the cost will rise to £80 GBP. Optional accommodation will cost £25 GBP per night.
