Winter Braids XV will take place in Marseille (city centre) in 2026.

Winter Braids is an annual school devoted to low dimensional topology and interactions. The main topic of the school is low dimensional topology, with a particular emphasis on the multiple aspects of braid groups (algebraic, geometrical, topological or algorithmic). The school is mainly aimed at young researchers. It typically offers four mini-courses, of usually three hours, introducing classical or emerging topics of low dimensional topology and its multiple ramifications.
