[cmath] Workshop Connecting Women in Mathematics Across Canada

[Gerda de Vries]

Connecting Women in Mathematics Across Canada

December 7-8, 2006 (just prior to the CMS Winter 2006 Meeting), at the 
Fields Institute, Toronto.



The CMS Committee for Women in Mathematics, in cooperation with the Fields 
Institute, is organizing a networking and mentoring workshop for women in 
the mathematical sciences at Canadian universities.  All women in the 
mathematical sciences at Canadian universities are invited.

The workshop opens with a public talk by Siobhan Roberts, author of "King 
of Infinite Space: Donald Coxeter, the Man Who Saved Geometry."

In addition, there will be presentations on careers in the mathematical 
sciences by senior women, research presentations by junior women, a panel 
discussion, and small group discussions.

Graduate students and postdoctoral fellows participating in the workshop 
are encouraged to give a presentation on their research interests, in the 
form of either a 20-minute talk or a poster.



Participation/Registration Fee is $55 (the fee includes coffee breaks, one 
lunch, and one dinner).

Online registration closes on December 1, 2006.
