Conference schedule:
all times given as UK summer time (BST)
The meeting room will open 30 minutes before the first talk on each day.
You can also download the programme in PDF Format.
In addition to the main schedule, there are 10 minute contributed talks from students. These are prerecorded so you can watch them in your own time – the list can be found here. This page also contains instructions to the students on how to submit contributions.
Links to videos are included below with individual speakers. In addition the list of public recordings can also be consulted at the Hubbard Theory Consortium Youtube Channel.
