Mid-Atlantic Topology Conference 2024

The Mid-Atlantic Topology Conference is a recurring regional topology meeting, previous iterations of which have been hosted at UVA, Johns Hopkins, and Penn. The latest iteration is planned for March 23–24, 2024 at Northeastern University. As in the past, the event will take a broad thematic focus and prioritize showcasing young researchers and those from underrepresented populations. The conference will highlight a broad selection of current directions in topology, including geometric group theory, geometric and topological data analysis, applied and computational topology, higher category theory, and motivic homotopy theory. The goal is to continue to capture and focus the momentum from a series of new hires in topology seen on the East Coast in recent years, and to provide regional researchers of all career stages and subdisciplines of topology with the opportunity to build community, discuss research, and gain exposure to new ideas.
