Registration: Monday 13th, 9.00-9.40 hr (Aula Miguel de Guzman)

Opening: Monday 13th, 9.45 - 10.00 hr

This course will have two parts:
School part: two courses of 20 hours in the morning sessions on some actual topics in operator algebras.

Schedule for the school part (from monday to friday):
- Course I: From 10:00 - 11:30. Continuous fields of C*-algebras and K-theory invariants, by Prof. Marius Dadarlat, Purdue University, USA; confirmed.
- Course II: From 12:00 - 13:30. Quasidiagonality, finite dimensional approximations and operator algebras, by Prof. Nathanial P. Brown, Penn State University, USA; confirmed

Workshop part: The idea of the workshop part is to give two 45 min research lectures in the afternoon. Each day is devoted to some more advanced topic in operator algebras or some of its aplications.
Our intention is to promote the discussions and interactions. For this reason we have decided to plan only two conferences each afternoon.
