PhD Student Symposium: (GT)²: Graduate Talks in Geometry and Topology

Description

Graduate Talks in Geometry and Topology, (GT)², is an online symposium organised by and for graduate students, running fortnightly throughout Semester 1, 2021 starting on Tuesday 2 March. The symposium is designed to provide an opportunity for Australian graduate students in geometry and topology to present their research to a diverse audience, as well as engage, network, and share ideas with other students in their field.

All interested parties are encouraged to attend and engage. The symposium will all be in an inclusive, supportive environment that assumes only undergraduate-level mathematical knowledge.

We endorse this statement of inclusiveness:

We are a group of scholars, researchers, and teachers. We refuse to compromise the ideals of academic freedom and open exchange. We affirm that scientific events have to be open to everybody, regardless of race, sex, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, age, pregnancy, immigration status, or any other aspect of identity. We believe that such events have to be supportive , inclusive, and safe environments for all participants. We believe that all participants are to be treated with dignity and respect. Discrimination and harassment cannot be tolerated. We are committed to ensuring that the scientific events in which we participate follow these principles, and we request that organizers of scientific events make explicit statements on the event website to that effect.
