Information about how to join the Teams meeting will be circulated to the COW mailing list the day before the meeting. If you would like to join the COW mailing list, instructions on how to do so may be found on the mailing lists page. If you would like to attend the meeting remotely but do not want to join the mailing list, please send an email to Alan Thompson (A.M.Thompson (at) lboro.ac.uk) requesting the meeting information.

Funding and Travel Claims

The COW has some funding to cover travel expenses for UK-based PhD students and postdocs. The COW is currently funded by the London Mathematical Society under a scheme 3 grant. To ensure that we can fund as many participants as possible, we ask that participants purchase "advance" or "off-peak" train tickets where practical, and non-travel expenses (e.g. accommodation, food) cannot be covered. For those under the age of 30, we also recommend looking into getting a railcard, which can offer substantial savings on the cost of train travel around the UK. Information about how to submit a claim is available on the COW homepage here.
