We are pleased to announce that Professor Anna Lawniczak has been awarded a 2018 Fellowship of the Engineering Institute of Canada for excellence in engineering and services to the profession and to society.
We are pleased to announce that Professor David Kribs was invited to give the prestigious Douglas Lectures at Texas A&M University in October 2017.
We are pleased to announced that Department of Mathematics and Statistics Associate Professor Allan Willms, University Professor Emeritus William Langford and collaborator Petko Kitanov have had their paper "Huygens’ clocks revisited" accepted for publication in the prestigious Royal Society Open Science.
We are pleased to announced that Department of Mathematics and Statistics professor Monica Cojocaru has been awarded a $120,000 NSERC Discovery Grant and $120,000 Discovery Accelerator Supplement to focus on the development of the notion of generalized Nash games (GNE), tackling questions of existence of solutions for such games, computational methods for finding these solutions, and the role this modelling concept can play in applied problems of populations.
We are pleased to announce that Harry Gaebler, current Master's student and incoming Doctoral student in Applied Mathematics, has been awarded the doctoral Highdale Farms - Arthur and Rosmarie Spoerri Scholarship in Natural Sciences.
Ms. Ningping Cao, an incoming PhD candidate in Applied Mathematics, has been awarded the prestigious China Scholarship Council (CSC) doctoral scholarship to fund her study at the University of Guelph for four years. Ningping will join the Department of Mathematics & Statistics in September 2017.
Apply by submitting a letter with a brief description of the conference and a detailed budget to the Mathematics and Statistics Undergraduate Awards Committee at least one month prior to the conference. Preference will be given to students presenting a paper or poster or returning to pursue graduate studies in the department. A student may be considered for this grant once only.
Entanglement is one of the key features of quantum mechanics, which allows two or more parties to be correlated in a way that is much stronger than they can be in any classical way. Entanglement also plays an important role in many quantum information processing tasks such as teleportation, quantum key distribution, and quantum computing. However, to determine whether a quantum system is entangled or not is challenging, which is in general an NP-hard problem.
The Department of Mathematics & Statistics is thrilled to announce that Dr. Gerarda Darlington has been honoured as one of Guelph's Women of Distinction for her role as a mentor to women in STEM fields.
Women of Distinction is a celebration of women who are role models, pioneers and outstanding achievers – they improve the quality of life in our community.
The Department of Mathematics & Statistics is pleased to be hosting the 13th Annual Guelph Biomathematics and Biostatistics Symposium on May 17, 2017.
The theme of the 2017 symposium is Microbial Communities.
Program and registration details are available on the Fields Institute website.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
The Guelph Biomathematics and Biostatistics Symposium was founded in 2004.
