East Coast Combinatorics Conference
2026-07-23 - 2026-07-24 | Mount Allison University, Sackville, New Brunswick, Canada
The 19th annual East Coast Combinatorics Conference (ECCC) will take place at Mount Allison University, Sackville NB, July 23-24, 2026. The ECCC provides an opportunity for faculty, postdocs, graduate students, and undergraduate students from Atlantic Canada and beyond, to network, exchange ideas, and collaborate on combinatorial research. The combinatorial community is very active in Atlantic Canada, with a particularly high level of collaboration in graph theory, design theory, and combinatorial game theory. The 2026 ECCC will be a 2-day conference that features two plenary speakers, a number of contributed talks, and a session for lightning talks.

2026 Science Atlantic Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science Conference
2026-10-23 - 2026-10-24 | New Brunswick
The 2026 Science Atlantic Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science Conference will take place at the University of New Brunswick Saint John (UNBSJ) during Oct 23-24, 2026. The conference will consist of a collection of plenary lectures, mathematics, statistics and computer science competitions and scientific research presentations by undergraduate and graduate students.
The conference is part of the larger annual Science Atlantic Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science Conference series. One overall aim of this exciting conference series is to bring together undergraduate students and faculty from universities based in Atlantic Canada. In doing so, the conference series promotes scientific discovery and literacy within the Mathematical, Statistical and Computing Sciences while at the same time fostering existing and promoting new collaborative and interdisciplinary activities amongst students and faculty.

Introduction to Chow motives and applications
2026-11-09 - 2026-11-13 | New Brunswick
Grothendieck–Chow motives provide a framework for studying algebraic varieties through correspondences rather than ordinary morphisms, allowing one to isolate and compare their
essential geometric and cohomological features. They unify many classical invariants in algebraic geometry, such as Chow groups, K-theories, and oriented cohomology theories into a
single categorical setting. Motivic decompositions often reveal hidden geometric structures and symmetries of varieties, especially for quadrics and various flag varieties. This mini course will give an introduction to Grothendieck–Chow motives and their applications.
