US-Cameroon International Workshop on Mathematical Biology (Buea, Cameroon May 15-17, 2009)

美国-喀麦隆数学生物学国际研讨会将于2009年5月15日至17日在非洲喀麦隆的布埃亚大学举行，同时将于2009年5月12日至16日举行第一届国际数学科学会议。讲习班将汇聚来自美国、欧洲、中撒哈拉和撒哈拉以南非洲的数学家、应用数学家和数学生物学家，以便在参与者之间交流信息和思想；促进研究，为科学、工程、工业和社会带来有效的新的数学和计算方法和技术；并为未来与喀麦隆和整个非洲的科学家和数学家合作提供机会。特别强调为初级教员和研究生以及数学专业代表性不足群体的妇女和个人提供参与机会，包括历史上黑人学院和大学的学生和教职员工。这笔赠款是由oise和dms共同资助的。

The US-Cameroon International Workshop on Mathematical Biology will take place at the University of Buea in Cameroon, Africa, from May 15-17, 2009, in conjunction with the First International Conference on Mathematical Sciences to be held from May 12-16, 2009. The workshop will bring together mathematicians, applied mathematicians and mathematical biologists from the US, Europe, and Central and Sub-Saharan Africa in order to exchange information and ideas among participants; promote research that will lead to effective new mathematical and computational methods and techniques for science, engineering, industry, and society; and provide opportunities for future collaboration with scientists and mathematicians in Cameroon and Africa at large. Special emphasis is being placed on providing opportunities for junior faculty and graduate students to participate, as well as women and individuals from groups who are underrepresented in mathematics, including students and faculty from Historically Black Colleges and Universities. This grant is co-funded by OISE and DMS.
