MODES 2025 - Programme and Registration details

[Paula Koelemeijer]

Dear all,

The programme for the MODES 2025 meeting at the University of Oxford is now online on the workshop website (with a summary of sessions and talk titles given below). 

Registration is open, with a deadline of 25^th March 2025. 

To register, please fill in this form with your details: Registration details

And then visit the university store to complete your payment here: Registration payment

The £50 registration fee will be used to cover lunch and refreshments on both days. A workshop dinner will take place at Al-Shami, a Lebanese restaurant about 15 min walk away from the department, at an additional cost of £30.

Abstract submission is now closed for oral presentations, but remains open for poster submissions. Abstracts can be submitted via this link: Abstract submission

See the workshop website for more information: Workshop website

Best wishes,

Paula

I work flexibly and sometimes email at odd times of the day or in the weekend, but I do not expect a response or action outside of your own normal working hours.
