Conformal and Cauchy-Riemann geometries have been active research areas of differential geometry, harking back to the work of Poincaré and Cartan at the turn of the twentieth century. Besides their importance in pure mathematics, these topics have found numerous applications in mathematical physics, notably in Penrose's twistor theory. This meeting will provide an opportunity for researchers working in these areas to interact and present their work.
