----- Forwarded message from Stephen Gustafson gustaf@math.ubc.ca ----- Date: Fri, 28 Nov 2008 16:06:27 -0800 (PST) From: Stephen Gustafson gustaf@math.ubc.ca Reply-To: Stephen Gustafson gustaf@math.ubc.ca Subject: [BIRS] Summer School in PDE July-Aug 2009 To: pde-par@lists.birs.ca

This is a call for applications to the PIMS/Accelerate Canada summer school in PDE, to be held in Vancouver and Victoria during July-August 2009. Please forward this message to any potentially interested graduate students and postdocs. The summer school features at least 12 mini-courses, covering various aspects of modern PDE, delivered by leading experts.

Some funding is available for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows who will be attending at least six of the mini-courses offered at the summer school. Support includes funds for local expenses and accommodation, and if possible, travel expenses.

Applicants for funding should arrange for one recommendation letter to be sent electronically to Stephen Gustafson gustaf@math.ubc.ca, and should indicate which mini-courses they plan to attend. Students can register for the summer school at http://www.math.ubc.ca/~gustaf/SummerSchool09/index.html

The deadline for applications for funding is March 15, 2009.
