LMS Northern Regional Meeting and Workshop on Applied Algebra and Geometry - 14 to 16 September 2026

The field of Applied Algebra and Geometry serves as a vital bridge between pure mathematical theory — including commutative algebra, representation theory, and algebraic topology — and transformative real-world applications in data science, cryptography, and systems biology. This workshop will take place over three days, and will incorporate the LMS Northern Regional Meeting 2026 and the 25th meeting of the Applied Algebra and Geometry Research Network (AAG).

The programme includes a diverse list of speakers, chosen to showcase the breadth of applied algebra and geometry in the wider region. The talks forming the LMS Meeting should in particular appeal to a broad mathematical audience; these include a talk by Prof. Reidun Twarock FRS, who is well known for her novel use of geometry to make exciting discoveries in virology.
This workshop is open to anyone, the timings are as follows:
Monday 14 September 1pm to 5pm
Tuesday 10am to 5.30pm 
Wednesday 10am to 12.30pm it is in
The location for all days is LMB/031

New Directions in semiclassical gravity workshop - 14 to 17 September 2026

The workshop New Directions in semiclassical gravity will bring together experts making recent contributions to lines of research related to the semiclassical regime of quantum gravity, including mathematicians, physicists and philosophers. The aim is to create a multidiciplinary melting pot of ideas to spearhead progress in the field, especially in the understanding of the mathematical properties of theory, its regime of applicability and consequences for fundamental physics. This is especially relevant at a moment in which mathematical techniques have matured sufficiently to tackle open problems in the field.
