The Heilbronn Institute is delighted to support the next Women in Number Theory and Geometry (WINGs). WINGs 2026 is an annual retreat for women, and other underrepresented genders, in number theory and geometry. The retreat will build networks of early career researchers throughout the UK, which will benefit the mathematical community as a whole.

13 – 16 April 2026

Venue: Cheltenham , UK

Supported by The Heilbronn Institute Small Grants Scheme.

WINGs 2026 is the sixth instalment of an annual retreat for women and other underrepresented genders in number theory and geometry. It is aimed at early-career mathematicians, from PhD onwards. As well as talks by keynote speakers, events will include social activities, which encourage interaction between participants, and short talks, so that participants can learn about each other’s research interests. Our goal is to help cultivate a sense of community among underrepresented genders in number theory and geometry.
