FLoC 2018 - All good things come to an end

Posted:

The 7th Federated Logic Conference (FLoC 2018) has now reached its conclusion, with a total of 1,986 people registered for this event over the course of the two week period. FLoC has been a huge undertaking from the department, and so many people have contributed to its success. On what has been one of the warmest UK summers, we have had so many wonderful comments from attendees. This has included:

‘FLoC has been excellent again. Many interesting and inspiring talks’

Dr Marijn Heule (The University of Texas at Austin)

 

‘It's been really exciting being here, meeting so many elite researchers in my field and interacting with fellow graduate researchers!’

Shromona Ghosh (UC Berkley)

 

‘For me as a 4 months PhD student it is is amazing to know how many people are working on the same problem as I do and it is great to know their approach!’

Simin Oraee (MPI for Software Systems)

 

‘It was an unforgettable experience in FLoC 2018’
