SUMMARY:Diversity in Mathematics 2020
DESCRIPTION:We propose a multi-year\, multi-level approach to promoting diversity and inclusivity in STEM. The annual two-week program encompasses concurrent\, partially overlapping events targeting two distinct groups: \n(a) A summer school for top undergraduate women in Canada and the northwest United States\, specializing in mathematics or a related STEM field such as computer science\, physics and statistics. The program will expose them to the many facets of the mathematical sciences in an intense two week immersion. Career opportunities in academia and industry will be given equal emphasis. We hope to encourage these gifted young women to continue on to graduate school\, an arena where women are still seriously under-represented. \n(b) An interactive math camp that runs as a companion program to the summer school. The target demographic here involves high school students in grades 10 and 11\, irrespective of gender\, with an aptitude for science and mathematics but from under-privileged groups.

SUMMARY:PIMS/AARMS WORKSHOP ON New Trends in Localized Patterns in PDEs
DESCRIPTION:Mathematical Theory and Applications to Physics\, Biology and the Social Sciences– a Conference in Honour of the 60th Birthday of Michael J. Ward \nLocalized spatial-temporal patterns commonly occur for various classes of linear and nonlinear diffusive processes. In particular\, they occur in reaction-diffusion (RD) systems modeling quorumsensing (QS) behavior in biological systems\, the initiation of root-hair tip formation in plant cells\, and the spatial distribution of urban crime. Localization behavior also occurs in the biophysical context of calculating first passage statistics for a Brownian walker in a region with localized traps\, and in ecology for calculating the persistence threshold of a species in a patchy landscape. In recent years\, we have witnessed an explosion of many new and exciting developments in the theory and applications of localized solutions in PDEs. Many new frontiers have opened while new connections between old fields have been discovered. \nThis workshop will highlight Prof. Ward’s influential contributions to the mathematics and applications of localized solutions to PDEs. It brings together his students\, colleagues and collaborators in a celebration of Prof. Ward’s 60th birthday. Over his long career\, Prof. Ward has made numerous invaluable contributions to many areas of applied mathematics\, including fluid dynamics\, metastability\, reaction-diffusion equations\, cell biology and pattern formation. He has supervised 13 doctoral students and also mentored numerous postdocs and undergrads.
