International Undergraduate and Graduate Mathematics, Interdisciplinary Research, and Project Conference
📅 August 8–9, 2026 (Online)
This international conference provides undergraduate and graduate students with an opportunity to present research projects, thesis work, mathematical investigations, interdisciplinary research, engineering and science projects, and innovative ideas before an international audience in a friendly, supportive, and encouraging environment.
Conference Information
_____________________________________
Join us for the inaugural FLAG where regional mathematicians will meet annually to network, present, and discuss recent trends in analysis!
Here you will find the first of a yearly gathering of mathematicians aimed at fostering in-person interactions between grad students, postdocs and early career researchers with more established regional faculty as well with a focus on complex analysis and operator theory.
Registration is free and anyone interested is more than welcome to attend!
If you are interested in presenting in a parallel session, please click here to submit a title and abstract. Abstract submission deadline is September 1st. Don't forget to register as well!
