News From the Wider Mathematical Community

The Department of Mathematics in the University of Torino is offering three 2-year post-doctoral positions in Pure and Applied Mathematics (working in the buildng below no less).

The deadline for nominations for the LMS/IMA David Crighton Medal in 2021 is 28^th February. The Medal is awarded for services both to mathematics and to the mathematical community, to a mathematician normally resident in the UK. 

Saturday 13 March 2021 - Online Event via Zoom

What is the conference about?

Here’s your chance to hone your science communication skills with the longest running science communication competition in the world – FameLab.

For the first time the Oxford competition will be hosted by the History of Science Museum, the world's oldest surviving purpose-built museum. You will have just three minutes to explain a concept on science, mathematics or engineering without using PowerPoint – showcasing your content, clarity and charisma!

This is the second announcement for the next joint British Mathematical Colloquium (BMC) and British Applied Mathematics Colloquium (BAMC) meeting, which will be held online 6th-9th April 2021. This is the postponed version of the 2020 event. 

We are delighted to announce PROMYS Europe Connect for 2021.

In view of continuing restrictions and uncertainty around Covid-19, we are designing PROMYS Europe Connect as a unique 4-week online programme that captures many of the key elements of the usual PROMYS Europe experience. PROMYS Europe is a challenging mathematics summer programme based at the University of Oxford, UK.

15th to 17th of February 2021.

The effort to integrate logic with deep learning has intensified in recent years and has the potential to give rise to a new computational paradigm in which symbolic knowledge is used to assist deep learning systems or extend their capabilities, while offering, at the same time, a path towards the grounding of symbols and the induction of knowledge from low-level sensory data. 

This one-day virtual event aims to promote interest and careers in mathematics for women. Attendance is open to mathematicians of all genders and backgrounds. The event should be of interest to undergraduate students and postgraduate students as well as mathematicians at any stage of their career.

Four 4 postdoc positions at the Universities of Bochum, Cologne, Heidelberg and Aachen within the collaborative scheme “Symplectic structures in geometry, algebra and dynamics”. The deadline for the applications is January 31, 2021.
