Dates: 13/06/2024 - 14/06/2024 | Location: Abacws Building, Senghennydd Rd, Cardiff, CF24 4AG
The Cardiff SIAM-IMA Student Chapter is proud to host the SIAM UKIE National Student Chapter Conference in 2024. The conference is a two-day event on Thursday 13th and Friday 14th of June.
The two-day conference will include four invited talks, contributed talks by attendees, a poster session and a conference dinner. Invited speakers cover various mathematical backgrounds, and we are pleased to also have an industry speaker at the conference. The conference is open to all postgraduate research students across the UK and Ireland. There will be plenty of opportunities to network. Moreover, this offers a great chance to those attending to present their research, either through a poster or a contributed talk.
The conference will be held in the newly built Abacws building, located in Cardiff. We are a 30 minute walk from Cardiff Central Train Station or alternatively, Cathays Train Station is located right next to the building and is only a 10 minute journey from Cardiff Central.
We are pleased to annouce the following plenary speakers, with abstracts to follow shortly:
Bio: Dr. Chenchiah expertise lies at the interface between mathematics on one hand, and solid mechanics, structural engineering & biology on the other hand. Current projects include morphing structures, wound healing and electroreception in bees.
Bio: Prof. Garetto's expertise lies in the field of Partial Differential Equations and Mathematical Analysis. Her research delves deeply into various aspects of this field, including hyperbolic equations and systems with multiplicities, PDEs characterized by singular coefficients and very weak solutions, and sub-elliptic problems on compact Lie groups.
Bio: Dr. Jones's is head of Risk Decision Science and Analytical Innovation at Nationwide Building Society. He is responsible for motivating and nurturing a large advanced analytics team delivering cutting edge tools across multiple business departments to drive optimal business outcomes.
Bio: Prof. Podlubny's research focuses on the theory and applications of fractional calculus. He has published over 200 papers in peer-reviewed journals and is the author of the book "Fractional Differential Equations".
There is no registration fee to attend the conference. Lunch and coffee/tea will be provided during both days of the conference, when registering please indicate if you have any dietary requirements. We are pleased to announce we will be hosting a conference dinner, although participants would be required to cover these costs. These will be kept to a minimimum and we are currently finalising the arrangements for this. Please indicate when registering if you are interested in attending.
We are very pleased to be able to offer travel awards to help with costs incurred in attending the conference. These include funds reserved for SIAM student chapter committee members and participants from under-represented groups. Please do indicate when registering if you would like to be considered for a travel award.
Registration is now open and will close on the 12th May 2024. Please register via the following link: Registration
