Travel support

The Cascade Topology Seminar is supported in part by grants from the National Science Foundation, the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences, and is a Mathematical Sciences Research Institute MER Network Conference. The support of these agencies is gratefully acknowledged. The Seminar has dedicated funding available to support the participation of graduate students, early career mathematicians, and members of traditionally underrepresented groups. Members of these aforementioned groups are especially encouraged to apply and attend. For members of these groups, we try hard to fund lodging, but rarely travel, and never per diem.
