Welcome to the 7th edition of Bringing Young Mathematicians Together (BYMAT)!


An international conference aimed at young researchers, being a wonderful opportunity to showcase their work and establish new connections for their career.
The conference main target are PhD students, but it's also of utmost interest to master's students and undergraduate which are eager to introduce themselves in mathematical research.
There will be parallel sessions in different areas with short talks by the attendees, as well as a poster session. We will also have 4 plenary talks given by young professors and some workshops of general interest.
BYMAT is a wonderful opportunity to meet and learn about fellow young researchers and make connections in your research area and beyond. We encourage you to participate actively with a poster or a talk, and of course that you also enjoy Sevilla in your visit.
For any questions feel free to contact us at bymat@us.es and check our social networks for the latest updates.

FUNDING FOR MASTER STUDENTS

We believe BYMAT is a great opportunity to start and learn about mathematical research, thereby giving funding for Master students in the years 2024-2025 or 2025-2026 to be able to attend the conference.

In order to apply for funding you will need to fill out the funding for master students form, which also serves as an inscription form. In order to obtain funding you will need to present a short talk or a poster, which can be based on your bachelor or master thesis, or other works you have done (it's not needed for the talk/poster to include original results).

You can submit your abstract(s), for which we ask you to follow the official template, via the same form.

If you are based in Seville, we will cover the inscription fee, and in other cases we will also provide lodging during the conference.

If you are applying for funding please do not pay the registration fee, as it will be covered if your application is accepted

For any questions about inscription or about the conference, feel free to contact us at bymat@us.es.

Practical Information

We recommend the following accommodation options:

Sevilla is easy to reach from the main Spanish cities. Sevilla has an international airport (Sevilla-San Pablo Airport) and a main train station (Sevilla-Santa Justa) with a fast-track railway connecting Sevilla with Madrid as well as many other important cities in Spain.

  • Train:

    Sevilla has good rail links to Barcelona, Cádiz, Córdoba, Jaén, Jerez de la Frontera, Granada, Huelva, Madrid, and Málaga. The fast–track AVE railway line provides a 2h 30min connection to Madrid every hour. For more information you can go to the train company website: https://www.renfe.com.


    Sevilla–Santa Justa train station is connected to the city center by local bus lines C1, C2 and 32. Red painted city buses are the predominant public transportation. Information about bus lines at Transportes Urbanos de Sevilla (TUSSAM): 955 479 000 or at their web page https://www.tussam.es/. You can get a map here.
