Topology and arithmetic of moduli spaces of curves
The conference aims at bringing together people working on different aspects (topological, group-theoretic, combinatorial, tropical, arithmetic, motivic, etc.) of moduli spaces of curves and their invariants.

Practical Information
How to reach the institute?
The math institute (IMAG) is located on Campus Triolet, in building number 9. The best way to reach the Campus Triolet is to take the tram: (1) take Tram number 1 going to Mosson, (2) get off at the station Saint Eloi, and finally (3) walk for 5-10 minutes to the Truel entrance of the Campus (go along Avenue du Dr Pezet and turn left into Rue du Truel). You'll see building number 9 from this entrance. Here's a map of Campus Triolet.
Location of the conference room
The conference takes place in the lecture room SC10.01, on the ground floor of building number 10 (next to IMAG, which is in building number 9).
Olympic flame
On Monday May 13, the olympic flame will arrive in Montpellier. In principle, the tram line number 1 shall be functionning as usual, but there might be some delays (especially in the afternoon, as the flame will arrive in the city center around 5pm). Here are webpages (in French) with more detailed information concerning the impact of this event on public transport: for bus lines and for tram lines.
