MRC 2024 ( "Models, Representation, and Computation") is a three-day conference devoted to celebrating Margaret Morrison's and Paul Humphreys’ 
scientific legacies and academic works and to catalyzing the next wave of research on the research topics they contributed to. This conference will be held on June 13-15, 2024 at the couvent des Cordeliers in Paris.

MRC 2024 will be preceded by a one-day event to celebrate the memory of Paul Humphreys. It will be held at the IHPST, in Paris, on Wednesday, June 12, 2024.

MRC 2024 will feature five keynote speakers and some confirmed invited speakers. In order to keep this event open to all interested scholars, attract novel researchers on these research topics, and celebrate Margie and Paul's exceptional mentorships, it will also include many slots for contributed talks which will be selected through a CFA.

Submission of anonymous abstracts up to 1000 words is welcome and may be made on the corresponding page of the conference website:
