<h2>North British Geometric Group Theory Seminar</h2>

<h3>Wednesday 7th and Thursday 8th April 2021</h3>

The NBGGT meeting on Wednesday 7th and Thursday 8th April 2021 will also serve 
as the special session in Group Theory at the 2021 BMC in Glasgow. 
Attenders need to register for the BMC, and for that session, but can apply
