ACCA Workshop update 2021
The usual program of workshop activities of the ACCA group, whose history can be been in all the links to previous workshops below, has been affected in the last two years by two circumstances. First, the Imperial ACCA group was involved in organizing a successful 4-month program at the Newton Institute in Cambridge which ran between Sep-Dec 2019. Information on that meeting can be found here. It was entitled "Complex analysis: techniques, applications and computations" and featured a wide range of events, including 3 one-week workshops - see the image below from the Newton Institute (INI) website. The talks delivered as part of that program are all viewable at the INI website.
Shortly after that 4-month event finished, normal activity was stalled by the COVID emergency. At the time of writing (April 2021), we are planning to relaunch regular ACCA workshop activities in the near future. Please watch this space!
UCL Early Career Online Workshop
Our partner ACCA node at UCL has recently organized an online event aimed at early career researchers interested in applied and computational complex analysis. The flyer from the last event, in early 2021, is reproduced below (see here for the original posting). Similar events are planned for the future.

The First International Research Meeting on Applied and Computational Complex Analysis took place in Recife, Brazil between December 9-11, 2015.
This meeting aimed at discussing some of the current research challenges on applied complex analysis and to provide an informal environment to foster new collaborations and the exchange of ideas and methodologies. Topics of interest included, but were not limited to, free-boundary problems, Hele-Shaw flows, vortex dynamics, growth models, Liouville field theory, integrable systems, etc.

ACCA Workshop June 2013
"Conformal geometry in mapping, imaging and sensing"
Date: Thursday 20th June – Friday 21st June 2013
Venue: Imperial College London, South Kensington Campus, Huxley Building, Room 140
Sponsors: LMS, EPSRC, Proc. Roy. Soc. A
The aim of the workshop is to survey new developments in the theory and applications of conformal geometry ranging from it's more traditional roles in pure/applied mathematics and numerical analysis (such as numerical conformal mapping, mesh generation) through to recent developments (such as circle packing and discrete conformal geometry) and novel applications in medical imaging, shape analysis, computer vision and sensing.
The workshop will comprise invited lectures, contributed talks, posters and discussion sessions. The interdisciplinary nature of the event should appeal to a broad range of mathematicians.
Jointly sponsored by London Mathematical Society, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and Proceedings of the Royal Society A.
