Gerri C. Lebow Hall at Drexel University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Lebow Hall is located at 3220 Market Street. The MAAGC Workshop aims to bring together senior researchers and junior
mathematicians from the region to exchange ideas and forge
collaborations in algebraic geometry and algebraic combinatorics. Anders Buch (Rutgers) Jim Haglund (Penn) Rebecca Goldin (George Mason) Thomas Lam (Michigan) Scientific Committee: Jonah Blasiak (Drexel), Linda Chen (Swarthmore), Jim Haglund (Penn), Elizabeth Milicevic (Haverford), Jennifer Morse (Drexel), Greta Panova (Penn). Friday, May 6 (Gerri C. LeBow Hall, Room 033):
Panel: There will be a 45-minute panel discussion on the academic job search, titled Looking for Jobs in All the Right Places. This professional development event is intended for all participants as well as members of the regional mathematics community: students, postdocs and faculty. Posters: We encourage all students and postdocs to participate in the poster session. The registration page includes a brief application to participate. For some excellent advice and several links to poster making resources (including templates), see this conference poster advice page. Financial support: There is limited funding, mostly for regional travel and housing for junior participants participating in the poster session, provided by the Mellon Foundation through a Tri-College Seed Grant. Some funds for childcare are available - please contact the
organizers as soon as possible if childcare is requested.
Location and Directions: Drexel University is located adjacent to Philadelphia's 30th Street Station served by Amtrak and SEPTA. LeBow Hall is located at 3220 Market Street (entrance from the courtyard to the south). See this webpage for information on directions, parking, and maps.
