The IMS is grateful for additional financial support from the School of Mathematical Sciences at UCC and the Department of Mathematics at MTU.
Format
The meeting consisted of invited talks and poster presentations on a wide variety of topics of interest to the mathematical community in Ireland. The event had a hybrid format, with speakers on-site at the Berkeley Library, Munster Technological University, and delegates able to attend talks virtually if they wish.
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the event upheld the prevailing HSE and Government advice, guidelines and regulations in relation to COVID-19, with particular attention to 2 metre physical distancing, face coverings where required by public health guidance, hand hygiene, coughing and sneezing etiquette and a limited number of on-site attendees.
