Meetings

The following pages provide information on our scientific programs and the schedules of the events (see also our annual schedules). All participants of the scientific programs are provided with full board and lodging during their stay. Depending on the program you are participating in we are able to offer several grants covering travel expenses. Concerning a proposal for a Workshop or an application for other activities, please visit the individual webpages of the programs displayed in the menu.

Workshops

This is the traditional, well-established program of weekly Workshops with 45-48 participants. Participation is by personal invitation by the Director, upon the recommendation of the organizers. The Workshops are organized by leading international experts in the field.  [more]

Simons Visiting Professors

Since January 2014, there is a new program at Oberwolfach which is called Simons Visiting Professors. This program annually supports up to 40 distinguished scientists from outside Europe, who wish to combine an invitation to an Oberwolfach Workshop with a research visit to a European university of up to two weeks.

Mini-Workshops

It is possible to hold Mini-Workshops of 15-17 participants in certain fixed weeks. They are aimed especially at junior researchers and hot developments. The decision takes place half a year before the date. The Mini-Workshops are scheduled for one week.  [more]

Oberwolfach Arbeitsgemeinschaft

The idea of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft is to learn by giving a lecture on some new results which have been found recently by other researchers working in some specific topic. Organizers and topics for the next Arbeitsgemeinschaft are proposed during the current Arbeitsgemeinschaft. Participation is by application to the organizers.  [more]

Oberwolfach Seminars

The Oberwolfach Seminars are organized by leading experts in the field and address postdocs and Ph.D. students from all over the world. The aim is to introduce about 24 participants to a particular hot development. We are pleased that the Carl Friedrich von Siemens Foundation has decided to support the Oberwolfach Seminars from 2008 to 2019. Applications should be addressed to the Director.  [more]
