We are happy to announce the 6th edition of the Dutch-Belgian seminar in discrete mathematics on 3 May 2024 at Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), Belgium.
This seminar aims to give young researchers a platform (which was sorely lacking due to COVID) to share their recent results on topics under the umbrella of discrete mathematics. Earlier seminar editions were held at TU/e (3 February 2022, 6 October 2023), VUB (25 May 2022, 31 May 2023), UGent (20 January 2023).
