Research Students Conference in Population Genomics 2024

Research Students Conference in Population Genomics 2024

Description

The field of population genomics is one of the fastest growing areas of interdisciplinary research. It is the culmination of the developing relationship between big data, mathematics and biological understanding. The conference aims to address every facet of this emerging field through interdisciplinary collaboration. There is much recognition that the field of population genomics is multidisciplinary, and that many research groups are sparsely distributed throughout the UK. This conference aims to be a formal and structured setting, for postgraduate researchers, in which research can be discussed without the pressure of an overwhelming number of late stage career researchers being present.

Retreat for Women in Applied Mathematics 2024

Retreat for Women in Applied Mathematics 2024

Description

The Retreat for Women in Applied Mathematics (RWAM) 2024 strategic workshop builds on the spectacular success of the pilot event RWAM 2023. The objectives of RWAM 2024 remain the same as those of RWAM 2023 - to create a sense of community amongst female applied mathematicians at all career stages, to support and mentor early career researchers, and to create a unified form for sharing information about scientific opportunities, funding, university teaching, career progression, and more generally all aspects of academic life that contribute to our professional satisfaction.

GRAMPA

GRAMPA

Description

This is the first workshop of the General Relativity from AMPlitudes Alliance (GRAMPA) initiative, whose primary goal is to support early-career researchers working in the field of scattering amplitudes applied to gravitational theories.

Due to the pandemic, meetings of GRAMPA have so far been restricted to online. Now that it is possible to meet in person again, we look forward to this in-person event, centred around GRAMPA’s aims of creating an environment of continuous learning and knowledge exchange, as well as to foster collaboration and mentorship.

UK-Vietnam Mathematics Joint Meeting

UK-Vietnam Mathematics Joint Meeting

Description

This is a joint meeting organised jointly by the International Centre for Mathematical Sciences in Edinburgh and the Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics in Hanoi.

Bringing together UK and Vietnamese mathematicians, this comes after other milestones including the France-Vietnam joint meeting in 2014 in Hue, and the US-Vietnam joint meeting in 2019 in Quy Nhon. 

This meeting aims at fostering bonds and research cooperations between the UK mathematicians and Vietnamese mathematicians working either in Vietnam or abroad. The speakers will be asked to give a presentation of their research in an accessible way to a larger audience of mathematicians. In addition, we will plan enough time in between the talks so that participants can interact with other presenter and with one another.

Rewilding Mathematics (A Mathematics for Humanity Programme)

Rewilding Mathematics (A Mathematics for Humanity Programme)

Description

Rewilding is a radical and sometimes controversial approach to ecosystem management which focuses on renewing ecosystem processes and enriching food webs of degraded ecosystems. It is distinguished from more traditional ecosystem restoration in a number of ways, including less predictable ecosystem dynamics, minimal human intervention in the long term, a willingness to embrace the emergence of novel ecosystems and a more inclusive relationship between people and nature.  In the context of rapidly changing environmental conditions, rewilding may often be the most pragmatic and powerful approach to restoring biodiversity and delivering improved ecosystem services (for example water purification, pollination, soil improvement, flood protection). The delivery of such services at large scale is seen as a key tool in adaptation to climate change and thus of direct benefit to humanity.
Rewilding is rapidly developing a scientifically grounded conceptual framework and it is crucial that mathematical and statistical concepts and applications are integrated at this early stage.  Despite the launching of a number of rewilding projects around the world, there has been a lack of quantitative protocols and therefore analytical rigour in testing for significant improvements in ecosystem service delivery and biodiversity gain.
The aim of ‘rewilding mathematics’ is to explore these issues by building new partnerships between the mathematical sciences and ecologists with expertise in rewilding. We hope that it will be a landmark in the formation of a scientific basis for rewilding.
