The Moab Topology Conference will take place at Utah State University Moab on May 4-6, 2026. The conference will focus on recent developments in various subfields of geometric and quantum topology. The goal of this conference is to share current research with graduate students and postdoctoral scholars as well as to give an opportunity for them to speak about their work. 

There will be three plenary speakers who will deliver one introductory lecture and one research lecture. The remaining talks will be given by early career mathematicians, particularly graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. Graduate students are especially encouraged to apply, attend and give a talk! Please note that the deadline to apply for funding and submit an abstract is March 2, 2026.
