This will be the fourth edition of a recurring event in low-dimensional topology and geometric group theory. The previous editions were held in Pisa, the first in September 2023, the second in September 2024, and the third in September 2025 and saw the participation of more than 50 mathematicians from all over Europe and beyond. This workshop fits inside the fecund tradition of the Pisan school of geometric topology, while compensating the lack of such events in the Italian landscape. Our aim is to gather young researchers and PhD students in the area, enabling them to discuss and exchange fruitful ideas in an inclusive and friendly atmosphere. The conference will feature a number of research talks and two mini-courses held by young and outstanding researchers in the field. Junior participants will be encouraged to expose their work in a session of flash talks.
