Mathematical Science: SACNAS Mathematical Sciences Summer Institute

卡斯蒂略-查韦斯9600027 摘要 1996年SACNAS数学科学暑期研究所（SMSSI）是康奈尔大学的一个为期六周的暑期项目，由美国国家安全局、康奈尔大学教务长办公室和国家科学基金会与墨西哥裔和美洲原住民科学促进协会（SACNAS）共同组织。SMSSI将带来20至30名奇卡诺，拉丁美洲和美洲原住民本科生到康奈尔大学进行为期六周的数学生物学暑期课程。 1996年的SMSSI将于1996年6月17日至7月26日举行。 与会者将获得往返交通伊萨卡，纽约，食宿，和2000美元的津贴。 该计划是专为本科生谁将完成他们的大二或大三在1996年。主修数学、生物或相关领域，并有一年微积分学习经验的学生均可申请。1996年研究所的学术内容是由首席研究员Castillo-Chavez教授设计的，他是康奈尔大学领先的数学生物学家，也是数学生物学学会董事会成员。重点将放在研究人口动态的数学理论及其在人口统计学，生态学，流行病学和进化生物学中的应用。SMSSI将包括动力系统 和随机过程研讨会，一个写作研讨会密切连接到理论生物学的研究，分析和数学模型的数值模拟与小组研究项目，研讨会上申请入学和研究生院的资金，并由受邀数学家和科学家座谈会。申请也可通过电话：408-459-4272或电子邮件：sacnas@cats.ucsc.edu向SACNAS办公室提出。 有关该计划的其他信息可通过联系赫伯特A获得。麦地那通过电话310-338-5113或通过电子邮件t hmedina@lmumail.lmu.edu或卡洛斯卡斯蒂略查韦斯通过电话607-255-5488或通过电子邮件cc32@cornell.edu。

Castillo-Chavez 9600027 ABSTRACT The 1996 SACNAS Mathematical Sciences Summer Institute (SMSSI) is a six-week summer program at Cornell University organized in conjunction with the Society for Advancement of Chicanos and Native Americans in Science (SACNAS) and the support of the National Security Agency, Cornell University's Provost Office and the National Science Foundation. SMSSI will bring between 20 and 30 Chicano, Latino and Native American undergraduates to Cornell University for an intensive six-week summer program in mathematical biology. The 1996 SMSSI will take place between June 17 - July 26, 1996. Participants will receive round-trip transportation to Ithaca, NY, room and board, and a $2000 stipend. The program is designed for undergraduates who will complete their sophomore or junior year during 1996. Students majoring in mathematics, biology, or related fields and who have had a year of calculus, are eligible to apply. The academic content of the 1996 Institute has been designed by Principal Investigator Professor Castillo-Chavez, a leading mathematical biologist at Cornell University and a member of the Board of Directors of the Society for Mathematical Biology. Emphasis will be placed on studying the mathematical theory of population dynamics and its applications to demography, ecology, epidemiology, and evolutionary biology. The SMSSI will include dynamical systems and stochastic processes seminars, a writing seminar intimately connected to the study of theoretical biology, analysis and numerical simulations of mathematical models associated with group research projects, workshops on applying for admissions and funding for graduate school, and colloquia given by invited mathematicians and scientists. Applications may also be requested from the SACNAS office by phone: 408-459-4272 or e-mail: sacnas@cats.ucsc.edu. Additional information about the program may be obtained by contacting Herbert A. Medina by phone at 310-338-5113 or via e-mail a t hmedina@lmumail.lmu.edu or Carlos Castillo-Chavez by phone at 607-255-5488 or via e-mail at cc32@cornell.edu.
