2005

The Graduate Student Social at the International Linear Algebra Society Conference, Regina, June 26-29, 2005.

The Graduate Student Social was held at a downtown restaurant and attracted 27 students from the conference. The social was hosted by two University of Regina undergraduate students.

PIMS Summer Workshop in Mathematical Biology, Edmonton, May 2-12, 2005

The summer workshop's aim was to introduce students to mathematical modelling and analysis applied to real biological systems. Through lectures and exercises, students were introduced to various techniques of mathematical modelling (discrete models, ODE's, PDE's, stochastic models). With a self-guided tutorial the students learned how to use Maple to simulate mathematical models and relate them to biological data. Through projects, teams of 2-3 students experience mathematical modeling first hand.  The workshop ran for 11 days, with 14 student from across Canada participating.
