Dear colleagues and friends, This is a gentle update on our "Hopf Days in Brussels 2023" conference that will be held at the ULB - Université Libre de Bruxelles on the 4th and 5th of September, 2023. This two-days event aims at being an occasion to gather international experts and young researchers in the theory of Hopf algebras and related topics. Please, feel free to share the details of this event in your local academic community and to forward the information to anyone who might be interested. ================================================================= REGISTRATION Registration is open via a form on the webpage sites.google.com/view/hopfdaysbrussels2023 You may also reach it directly via the following link: form.jotform.com/filkasyfil/hopf-days-in-brussels-2023 Please, register before the 20th of August at 23:59:59 Anywhere on Earth. Registration is free but mandatory. At the moment there is still room for some contributed talks. However, in view of the high number of registrations compared to the relatively short duration of the event, we kindly ask to anyone who is interested in contributing to register before the 30th of June, at 23:59:59 Anywhere on Earth, and to provide an abstract in the registration form. In this way, we may organize the schedule of the event and communicate the final decision before the summer vacations. Registration might still be possible after that date and until August 20 (but it might be that there will be no funding or slots for contributed talks available anymore). In addition, we have a very small budget still at our disposal to offer limited financial support to (young) participants who will actively contribute to the event. If you are interested to apply, please mention it in the registration form and provide an abstract proposal for your contribution before the 30th of June, at 23:59:59 Anywhere on Earth. We encourage people who want to apply for support to register as soon as possible, as support will be given on a first come, first served basis ! We commit ourselves to provide an answer before the summer break. ================================================================= CONFIRMED SPEAKERS - Ana Agore (Bucharest/Brussels) - Daniel Bulacu (Bucharest) - Piotr M.
