35th Meeting at Carnegie Mellon University (Fall 2026)

The 35th FTG Member Meeting will take place at Carnegie Mellon University on September 25–26, 2026. The local organizers are Simon Mayer, Chester Spatt, Patrick Blonien, Brent Glover, Liyan Shi, Selman Erol, Shengxing Zhang, and Ariel Zetlin-Jones.

Parallel sessions will begin at 2:00 p.m. on Friday, September 25. The meeting will adjourn no later than 3:00 p.m. on Saturday, September 26.

The local organizers have arranged two room blocks for meeting participants. Both are about 2 miles away from Tepper.

1. Hotel Indigo Pittsburgh University Oakland ($199): 39 Technology Drive. Booking Link
2. Hotel Indigo Pittsburgh East Liberty ($139): 123 N Highland Ave. Booking Link

There are also several recommended options that are somewhat closer to Tepper.

1. Courtyard by Marriott Pittsburgh University Center: 100 Lyttton Ave --> 10-15 min walk
2. Hilton Garden Inn Pittsburgh University Place: 3454 Forbes Ave --> 20 min walk

Unfortunately, we could not secure room blocks at these hotels because it is homecoming weekend for the University of Pittsburgh, so availability is limited. Participants are strongly encouraged to book accommodations early.
