Conferences should be listed (and updated!) in chronological order. Upcoming conferences should be listed from nearest to most distant, while past conferences should be listed from most recently past to the longest past. Begin your listing with a subsection header so that it appears in the table of contents. If you'd like to have a separate wiki page for your conference, you're more than welcome, but please place the link to that page in the appropriate place.
The AMS keeps a fairly comprehensive list of current confereces on their calendar.

Science & Technology in Society:
An International Multidisciplinary Graduate Student Conference
Sponsored by:
The American Association for the Advancement of Science
Arizona State University, Consortium for Science, Policy & Outcomes
George Mason University
The George Washington University
Virginia Tech
When: March 31 - April 1, 2007
Where: American Association for the Advancement of Science, Headquarters, Washington, DC
Abstract Deadline: January 16, 2007
This annual conference provides a venue for graduate students from Science & Technology Studies, Science & Technology Policy, Environmental Studies/Policy and related fields to present and receive constructive feedback on their research. In developing the agenda for the conference, the organizing committee's primary goal is to create a forum that encourages intellectual exchange between STS, S&T Policy and Environmental Studies/Policy by assembling diverse and exciting panels around similar themes. As such, the committee will accept the strongest proposals on issues relevant to either field, and build the agenda around them. The agenda for last year's conference (www.stglobal.org) provides examples of common themes and topics that may be covered this year. In addition to presenting papers, students will have the opportunity to interact with each other and prominent scholars and professionals related to their field(s) of interest. Every year we invite prominent figures from both STS and S&T Policy to deliver keynote addresses. Because we draw participants from all over the world, this conference is an excellent opportunity for young scholars aspiring to work in academic, governmental, or non-governmental settings to build both national and international networks for future research and collaborations. The conference organizing committee welcomes submissions of abstracts (up to 250 words) for a 15-minute presentation. Please submit abstracts and contact information to our website at www.stglobal.org by January 16, 2007. Notification of abstract acceptance will be given by February 7, 2007. Information concerning area lodging and registration is posted on the conference website. Travel funds are available for a limited number of presenters. Indicate your need for travel funds when submitting your abstract. For further information, either e-mail abstract@stglobal.org or visit the conference [www.stglobal.org website]

Manfred Einsiedler: Dynamics on Locally Homogeneous Spaces
Douglas Lind: Dynamics, Algebra, and Number Theory
Thomas Ward: Dynamical Properties of Commuting Automorphisms
Costs for accommodation (hotel including breakfest) will be covered for a limited number of participants. We cannot give any support for travel expenses.

The broad theme of the Fall schools is the interaction of Mathematical Logic and Complexity Theory, with special emphasis on Proof Complexity.
The format of the school is this: We have two tutorials during Monday to Thursday, each usually two hours per day. One tutorial is delivered by the main guest speaker on a topic in logic or complexity theory broadly relevant to the main theme of the schools. Past guest speakers were: Tomas Jech, Lou van den Dries, Johan Hastad, Ulrich Kohlenbach, Russell Impagliazzo, Jeff Paris, and Stevo Todorcevic. This is complemented by lectures of the participants on their own work during Friday (there is no obligation to deliver such a talk, though).
Deadline: May 1, 2007.
Plenary speaker Mike Freedman, organisers Scott Morrison and David Gauld.
Mathematical Research Institute (MRI), The Netherlands
This Master Class provides an introduction to quantum groups, semisimple and affine Lie algebras and quantum field theories, leading up to the construction of concrete and powerful topological invariants for 3-manifolds and knots. Besides the theoretical development, special attention is paid to the algorithmic and computational aspects of topological invariants using computer algebra.
In the one-year-long Master Class, this topic is studied intensively and profoundly at an advanced level. The Master Class can form a significant contribution to a PhD programme or preparation for one.

Designed for graduate students and postdocs, the program will focus on recent progress in the theory of evolution equations. Such equations lie at the heart of many areas of mathematical physics, arising not only in situations with a manifest time evolution (such as linear and nonlinear wave and Schrödinger equations) but also in the high energy or semi-classical limits of elliptic problems.

University of California, Berkeley, CA
The Fall 2006 workshop in the program Lie Groups, Lie Algebras and Their Representations will take place on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley, November 11 and 12, 2006. This will be a joint workshop with the Representation Theory, Geometry and Combinatorics RTG at Berkeley. Joseph Wolf is the local organizer.
The workshops "Lie Groups, Lie Algebras and their Representations" meet at various western United States campuses for one weekend every few months during the academic year. This year we are between NSF workshop grants and only two workshops are planned.
The purpose of the program is to communicate results and ideas rather than to deliver polished presentations. The program also serves to acquaint graduate students in this area with a range of researchers in Lie theory and representation theory.
The lectures will be held in 1015 Evans Hall. Participants will be able to enter the building at the ground level on the west (downhill) side.
We will update the program listing as information becomes available.
There is no registration fee. Support for non-local graduate students is available, and graduate students are encouraged to attend. Contact the local organizer regarding support.
Parking: street parking is available weekends on the north side of the Berkeley campus. One algorithm: go 1 to 4 blocks north from the campus on Euclid, and turn left.
