The aim of this school is to introduce graduate students and postdoctoral researchers to contemporary developments in the theory of Associative and Nonassociative Algebras and Dialgebras.
On the 6th of June, 2012, Jean-Louis Loday passed away in a maritime accident. The deep sense of loss has motivated the Organizing Committee to dedicate this School to honour a Man and a Mathematician who contributed with his work and enthusiasm to the development of our knowledge in Algebra and Geometry. Jean-Louis Loday had been appointed as a Lecturer for this School from its beginning. Now we dedicate it to his memory.
