Second Announcement and Call for Registration

The 5th Geoffrey J. Butler Memorial Conference
on Differential Equations and Population Biology

July 25 – 30, 2011
University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada

The 5th G. J. Butler International Conference on Mathematical Biology and 
Differential Equations will be held on the University of Alberta campus, 
Edmonton, from July 25-30, 2011, shortly after the 2011 ICIAM meeting in 
Vancouver. This conference in the memory of our late colleague, Geoffrey James 
Butler, follows four highly successful previous such conferences. 

The Butler Speaker for 2011 will be Professor Jianhong Wu of York University, 
who will give three Butler Memorial Lectures throughout the conference. Previous 
Butler Speakers were Professors Paul Waltman, Jean Mahwin, Jack Hale, and Gail 
Wolkowicz. One-hour keynote lectures will be delivered by the following 
speakers:

Arno Berger (Alberta)
Gerda de Vries (Alberta)
Josef Hofbauer (Vienna)
Yang Kuang (Arizona State)
Yuan Lou (Ohio State)
Philip Maini (Oxford)
Shigui Ruan (Miami)
Yasuhiro Takeuchi (Japan)
Horst Thieme (Arizona State)
Wendi Wang (China)
Gail Wolkowicz (McMaster)
Yingfei Yi (Georgia Tech)

The scientific scope of the Butler conference series covers two important fields 
of scientific research. The scope in differential equations covers ODEs, PDEs, 
FDEs, and abstract dynamical systems. The scope in population biology has grown 
from the traditional ecology to include epidemiology, physiology, cell biology, 
systems biology, immunology and other medical applications. By bringing together 
researchers from two interconnected disciplines, the Butler conference presents 
a unique opportunity to promote and nurture scientific exchange and 
interdisciplinary collaboration.

There will be a proceedings of the conference published in the Canadian Applied 
Math Quarterly (CAMQ). All participants who present a paper at the conference 
are welcome to submit a paper containing original research or of a survey nature 
to be published in the Proceedings. The deadline for submission will be July 30, 
2011. All papers will be refereed.

Online registration is open at the conference website:
