Reaction-Diffusion, Propagation, and Modeling

该奖项为美国研究生、博士后研究员和初级研究人员提供支持，以更好地参与将于2017年11月20-24日在法国巴黎亨利·庞加莱研究所举行的“反应-扩散、传播、建模”会议。反应扩散方程是对自然界和社会中许多现象的数学描述。会议的重点是理论生物学、经济学和社会科学中的新数学模型。大会的受邀演讲者名单包括许多著名的应用科学家和应用数学家，以及偏微分方程(PDE)领域的领先专家。会议的主要目标是促进应用方法和理论方法之间的协同作用，回顾非线性偏微分方程及其应用方面的一些非常重要的最新成就，并讨论该科学领域的未来方向。演讲者名单由几代人组成，从著名的资深数学家到初级研究人员。19位确认的演讲者中至少有6位是女性数学家。会议的讨论将涵盖广泛的主题：生命和社会科学非传统模型中的前沿，非局部扩散方程，加速前沿的动力学，进化生物学中的前沿和奇点，以及流体力学中的非局部模型等。与标准的、更紧凑的会议日程相比，五天的会谈数量相对较少，将使与会者有时间进行更深入的讨论。这将促进应用科学家和相对纯粹的数学家之间的互动和合作。这次会议将为美国初级与会者提供与欧洲同行和资深科学家互动的宝贵经验，从而扩大他们的专业培训。会议网址为：http://reactiondiffusion.weebly.com/

This award provides support for the U.S. graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior researchers to participate in the conference "Reaction-Diffusion, Propagation, Modelling" that will take place at the Institut Henri Poincare, November 20-24, 2017, in Paris, France. Reaction-diffusion equations serve as a mathematical description of many phenomena in nature and society. The emphasis of the conference is on novel mathematical models in theoretical biology, economics and social sciences. The list of invited speakers at the conference includes many prominent applied scientists and applied mathematicians, as well as leading experts in the area of partial differential equations (PDE). The principal goals of the conference are to further the synergistic interaction between the applied and theoretical approaches, review some very important recent achievements in nonlinear PDE and their applications, and to discuss the future directions of this scientific area. The list of speakers comprises a mix of generations, from highly prominent senior mathematicians to junior researchers.  Six out of the nineteen confirmed speakers are female mathematicians.  The conference discussions will cover a broad spectrum of topics: Fronts in unconventional models in life and social sciences, nonlocal diffusion equations, dynamics of accelerating fronts, fronts and singularities in evolutionary biology, and nonlocal models in fluid mechanics, among others. The relatively small number of talks over five days will give the participants a time to have deeper discussions, than for standard, more compressed conference schedules. This will facilitate interactions and collaboration between the applied scientists and relatively pure mathematicians. The conference will provide for junior American participants an invaluable experience of interacting with their European peers and with senior scientists, thus broadening their professional training.
