Third University of Florida SIAM Gators Conference, March 27-29, 2014

佛罗里达大学数学系工业与应用数学学会（SIAM）学生分会将主办一场为期三天的学生会议。会议将由学生组织，教师担任顾问。届时将有6场由特邀教授主讲，21场由学生主讲。会议将有3个重点领域：数值优化和应用、成像中的数学建模和算法、数学生物学和建模。会议将展示优化和成像领域的最新计算技术，以及生物数学领域的最新模型。学生们将有机会见到自己和相关领域的专家，并将能够在会议的重点领域与其他学生建立联系。会议的学生组织者将培养组织技能，以及与其他研究人员互动和沟通的技能。本次会议将帮助来自数值优化、成像科学和数学生物学这三个相互关联领域的学生，在向医学成像技术、疾病建模和治疗等应用领域的研究人员学习和互动的过程中，对他们的研究和领域有更广阔的视野。这次会议将为今后的研究项目播下种子。通过与其他学生建立联系，将为未来的合作奠定基础。提交论文的摘要将在会议网站上公开提供。会议网址：siam.math.ufl.edu/conference/

Third University of Florida SIAM Gators Conference, March 27-29, 2014A three day student conference will be hosted by the student chapter of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) in the Mathematics Department of the University of Florida. The conference will be organized by students with faculty acting as advisors. There will be 6 keynote talks given by invited professors, while 21 talks will be given by students. The conference will have 3 focus areas: numerical optimization and applications, mathematical modeling and algorithms in imaging, and mathematical biology and modeling. The conference will showcase the latest computational techniques in the fields of optimization and imaging, as well as state-of-the art models in biomathematics. Students will have the opportunity to meet experts in their own and related fields, and will be able to network with other students in the focus areas of the conference. The student organizers of the conference will develop organizational skills, and skills in interacting and communicating with other researchers.The conference will help students from the three interrelated fields of numerical optimization, imaging sciences, and mathematical biology achieve a broader view of their research and their field as they learn from and interact with researchers who work in application fields such as medical imaging technology and disease modeling and treatment. The conference will plant the seeds for future research projects. By networking with other students, a foundation for future collaborations will be established. The abstracts of the presented papers will be publicly available on the conference web site.Conference web site: siam.math.ufl.edu/conference/
