TORA Scientific Committee:
TORA is a conference series hosted in rotation by
University of North Texas,

The TORA meetings will bring together the automorphic forms and representation theory community of the South Central region to hear about recent research in automorphic forms and representation theory. Graduate students and junior researchers are particularly encouraged to attend. Funding for TORA is provided by the National Science Foundation and the host universities.
