Non-linear Phenomena in Mathematical Physics: Dedicated to Cathleen Synge Morawetz on her 85th birthday

Jointly sponsored by the Association for Women in Mathematics and the Fields Institute
September 18-20, 2008

This conference is jointly sponsored by the Association for Women in Mathematics and the Fields Institute. Experts in PDE will lecture about their work. Invited speakers include Jean Bourgain, Susan Friedlander, Irene M. Gamba, Peter Lax, Sylvia Serfaty and Walter Strauss.

There will be an informal poster session of 60-90 minutes organized for the junior participants. Poster abstracts must be submitted by July 15, 2008.

In addition to the Fields Institute support, AWM has submitted a proposal to the Department of Energy to support participants. We anticipate that an award will be made in late-Summer, 2008. Students, recent Ph.D.’s, and minorities are particularly encouraged to apply for funding. Funding applications will be accepted between June 1, 2008 and August 1, 2008.

Further information including registration, travel and accommodation information is available at http://www.fields.utoronto.ca/programs/scientific/08-09/math-physics/
