BNP Networking Workshop

The University of Seoul invites you to attend the 4th BNP Networking Workshop, to be held at the University of Seoul (Centennial Memorial Hall) from July 6 (MON) to July 10 (FRI), 2026.

The Bayesian Nonparametric Networking Workshop has been held biennially since its inaugural event in 2022 in Cyprus. The BNP Section launched this series to create smaller, informal gatherings with the following goals:

  • To provide a flexible schedule with dedicated slots for early-career researchers.
  • To establish and strengthen local networks while broadening the appeal of BNP.
  • To foster brainstorming and innovation.

In 2026, the workshop will take place immediately after the ISBA World Meeting in Nagoya, Japan, offering an excellent opportunity to spark engaging discussions and promote deeper networking within the BNP community—particularly valuable for junior researchers.
