The Canadian Young Researchers Conference in Mathematics and Statistics (CYRC) is an annual event that provides a unique forum for young mathematicians across Canada to present their research and to collaborate with their peers. All young academics involved in mathematics research are invited to give a scientific talk describing their work and to attend talks on a host of current research topics in mathematics and statistics. Participants will have the opportunity to build and strengthen lasting personal and professional relationships, to develop and improve their communication skills, and to gain valuable experience in the environment of a scientific conference.
Since its inception in 2004 by graduate students at the University of Alberta, the CYRC has been held alternately at the University of Alberta and the University of Calgary. The conference has become a well-recognised and popular event; in 2007 the CYRC boasted over 90 participants from 11 different universities and in 2008 welcomed participants from six different provinces from across Canada. The CYRC will continue to gain momentum, respect and popularity among young researchers in mathematics and statistics, and we are very excited that the University of Calgary is able to participate and contribute to the development of the mathematical and statistical community.
The 6th Canadian Young Researchers Conference is proudly supported by the following organisations.
Registration and abstract submission is now closed. Thank you to all the participants and presenters that registered.
