Summer course on NONLINEAR WAVES: THEORY, APPLICATIONS, AND COMPUTATION.
Kavala, Greece, Jul 23 - Aug 5, 2017.
Application deadline: March 1st, 2017

Unbound Prometheus, a New York based academic company organizing
intensive summer programs in the beautiful town of Kavala, northern
Greece, in collaboration with the Technological and Educational
Institute (TEI) of Kavala, is offering a summer course on Nonlinear
Waves.

The course is designed to introduce senior undergraduate and graduate
students without previous background in the topic, to the exciting
realm of Nonlinear Waves through a synergistic and hands-on
combination of theory, applications and computations.

Students will receive a transcript with the equivalent of 3 units (US)
or 4.5 ECTS credits (Europe) from the (credited) Technological and
Educational Institute (TEI) of Kavala, Greece. These units should be
completely transferable to a US institution towards a 3 units upper
division class for undergraduates or towards a 3 units introductory
course for graduate students.

The deadline for registration has been extended to March 1st, 2017.
Full details can be found at http://unboundprometheus.com/ and a
detailed syllabus for the Nonlinear Waves course is available at:
http://unboundprometheus.com/s/SyllabusCarretero.pdf

Dear all,

this is the first announcement for the summer school on

Mathematical Modelling in Life Sciences,

to be held at the Centro di Ricerca Matematica "E. De Giorgi" in Pisa,
Italy, from September 13th to September 15th, 2017.

The aim of the school is to introduce and discuss some recent
developments in analytical and probabilistic modelling for life
sciences. The school will feature two main courses, by Benoit Perthame
(Universite Pierre et Marie Curie in Paris) and Sylvie Meleard (Ecole
Polytechnique Universite Paris- Saclay), as well as additional
lectures by Fran\c{c}ois Delarue (Universite de Nice). There will also
be a limited number of short contributed talks by some of the
participants.

This summer school is intended for PhD students and young researchers,
but open for everyone. Registration to the school is free, but
compulsory for organisatorial purposes. Some funds are available to
offer financial support to a limited number of selected students and
young researchers (post-docs). The deadline for application is 29th
June 2017.This school would not have been possible, without the
support by Centro di Ricerca Matematica "E. De Giorgi", Universita di
Pisa and GNAMPA-INdAM.

More information and the registration form are available on the website
http://www.crm.sns.it/event/409/

We are looking forward to seeing you in Pisa.
