ICMS Conferences
The ICMS conference series aims to present and disseminate advances across a broad spectrum of contemporary fundamental and applied mathematics, and to foster the development of emerging and innovative directions in mathematical research.
The conferences organized by the ICMS–Sofia aim to provide a vibrant platform for the presentation and exchange of recent research developments in contemporary mathematics. They bring together leading experts, early-career researchers, and graduate students to foster collaboration and explore frontiers in both fundamental and applied mathematics.
Each conference is devoted to a specific theme or emerging area, reflecting the interdisciplinary spirit of the ICMS. Topics span a wide range of fields, including but not limited to algebraic geometry, mathematical logic, topology, mathematical physics, number theory, and theoretical computer science. The events are structured to encourage interaction, featuring invited talks, contributed presentations, and ample time for informal discussions. By combining scientific excellence with an open and inclusive atmosphere, the ICMS conferences aim to support the growth of international research networks and to inspire new ideas across disciplines.
Conferences List
Workshop on Computational Neuroscience
The Workshop on Computational Neuroscience aims at gathering scientists from various fields of computational neuroscience, including multi-modal brain data acquisition, data analysis and modeling of brain activity. The main goal of the event is to share experience of world leading scientists with fellow scientists and with young researchers and establish new long-term collaborations among them. The workshop will include frontal lectures and a Round Table.
