In this pleasant environment, DEA2019 brings together researchers and practitioners interested in the development of the DEA methodology and its applications to performance management in both public and private sectors, with a special emphasis on regulation. Theoretical and empirical papers on DEA and related fields in efficiency and productivity analysis as well as performance measurement are invited.

This workshop aims to equip graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in mathematics and related disciplines with the tools necessary to solve common problems encountered in the pharmaceutical industry. The focus will be on development of pharmacometric skills to approach questions centred on drug development and dose/therapy optimization using a variety of state-of-the-art quantitative systems pharmacology (QSP) methodologies, also known as systems modeling. Participants will receive training in QSP approaches, including the principles of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (PK/PD), from academic and industrial researchers, and will apply these techniques in groups to solve a set of problems brought by industry partners. At the end of the week, participants will be able to identify the main components of a pharmaceutical problem through a QSP lens, translate these elements mathematically, analyze/numerically implement and solve the resulting mathematical model, and deliver results (visually and textually) to non-mathematicians. Ultimately, participants will gain understanding into the factors that are key to mathematical modeling in the pharmaceutical industry and be trained in modern QSP approaches.

AMMCS-2019 is an interdisciplinary international conference in a series of AMMCS meetings held in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. The AMMCS Conference Series aims at promoting interdisciplinary research and collaboration involving mathematical and computational sciences within a larger international community, and highlighting recent advances in Applied Mathematics, Modeling and Computational Science (AMMCS). In 2019 the conference will be held in August (August 18-23, 2019). From its inception this conference series has been organized in cooperation with AIMS and SIAM. The conference provides a unique opportunity for in-depth technical discussions and exchange of ideas in all areas involving mathematical and computational sciences, modeling and simulation, as well as their applications in natural and social sciences, engineering and technology, industry and finance.

Tremendous progress has been made in the past century in biological sciences thanks to technological advances in experimental and measuring techniques. As was the case for physics and chemistry in the previous century, biological sciences are at a critical juncture where further advancements depend and rely crucially on the development of now quantitative tools. Mathematics will inevitably play a crucial role during the processes while biology comes increasingly more quantitative as a scientific discipline. Bio-ions and biomolecules are essential in performing biological functions in living organisms. The understanding of their roles in nerve and physiological functions has fundamental importance, as demonstrated by several Noble prize winning researchers since the prize was established.

The mathematics of climate change is one of the grand challenges of 21st century. Atmospheric phenomena range from large scale monsoons and jet stream meanders with spatial scales of thousands of km’s and time-scales of months to years all the way down to individual cumulus clouds formed by turbulence with spatial scales of 100 meters and time-scales of minutes. This workshop will help develop the mathematics necessary to advance our understanding of how to efficiently and accurately link these physical processes. Improvements in this "physics-dynamics" coupling is the major obstacle to improved accuracy of climate models.

Imagine a vibrating string. In mathematics, we would call this a one-dimensional motion (the dimension being the time over which the vibration occurs) of a one-dimensional object (the string) in three dimensions (our spatial universe). Mathematicians are interested in much more general music, where the object, the place in which it is vibrating and even the “time” over which it vibrates can all have many dimensions. Understanding the structure of such objects, which mathematicians call “spaces of embeddings”, is a basic question in the field of topology. Like much rich mathematics, it connects with many other areas in mathematics and beyond. These include the study of all possible ways to combine objects (operads), the study of quantities which can be defined through breaking things apart (topological field theories), and more elementary (but not easy!) subjects including graph theory and knot theory. In this workshop, we bring together researchers in all of these areas, who constitute a diverse collection of mathematicians (by time in career, gender, and nationality) to contemplate vibrating strings and their impact throughout mathematics and beyond.

In Mathematical Epidemiology, infectious diseases are studied using mathematical and computational tools, and mainly focus on infectious disease characteristics within localized populations and geographic regions. However, infectious diseases are not confined to small regions, and rather cross borders, affecting multiple populations, jurisdictions, and governments. In this workshop we will address the mathematical modelling of infectious diseases across borders, at the intersection of mathematical epidemiology and public health. The workshop will provide an important platform for knowledge translation and discussion, enabling (1) the identification of key questions in public health policy that need to be addressed where borders play an important role, and (2) the identification of mathematical models and methods that can be utilized to address key questions, and inform/advance public health policy. The workshop will bring together Canadian and international mathematical epidemiologists and public health decision-makers that work at the forefront of national and international infectious disease research. An important component of this workshop is the inclusion of infectious disease modellers that work in local, federal, and global health organizations, which will allow for important discussion on key issues to do with borders at these regional levels.

With an eye towards the use and need for higher structures, this workshop will bring together experts in algebraic geometry, symplectic geometry, and theoretical physics to focus on common areas interacting with HMS. Potential topics are Bershadsky--Cecotti--Ooguri--Vafa theory, shifted symplectic structures, higher Donaldson-Thomas invariants, and symplectic duality, in relation to HMS.

Internationally, the United Nations has called for a more rigorous approach, including the application of spatial-temporal modeling, for surveillance and disease reporting, particularly for groups societally marginalized. To address this gap, we will invite world-renowned researchers with expertise in mathematical and statistical modeling of spatial and temporal data.
