Topic: 

Analysis of Partial Differential Equations and Related Models

Description: 
The main theme of this workshop will be analysis of various deterministic and stochastic models in applied math. It will coincide with the PIMS-CSC distinguished lecture given by C. David Levermore at SFU. The intended audience includes graduate students, postdocs and researchers interested in numerical methods and analysis of PDEs and stochastic models.

The workshop aims is enhance the communication among local universities and provide a platform for fostering potential collaborations as well as broadening the view of graduate students from these universities and informing them of the current frontiers in applied math.
