Workshop Announcement: ---------------------------------------------------------------- Multiscale modeling of the food system ---------------------------------------------------------------- April 27 to April 30, 2015 American Institute of Mathematics Research Conference Center San Jose, California http://aimath.org/workshops/upcoming/foodsystem ------------ Description: ------------ This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will be devoted to developing a conceptual model of the U.S. food system, and elaborating a research agenda for continuing model development for world-wide analyses. The workshop is organized by John Ingram and Mary Lou Zeeman. For more details please see the workshop announcement page: http://aimath.org/workshops/upcoming/foodsystem Space and funding is available for a few more participants. If you would like to participate, please apply by filling out the on-line form (available at the link above) no later than January 15, 2015. Applications are open to all, and we especially encourage women, underrepresented minorities, junior mathematicians, and researchers from primarily undergraduate institutions to apply. -------------------------------- AIM Research Conference Center: -------------------------------- The American Institute of Mathematics (AIM) hosts focused workshops in all areas of the mathematical sciences. AIM focused workshops are distinguished by their emphasis on a specific mathematical goal, such as making progress on a significant unsolved problem, understanding the proof of an important new result, or investigating the convergence between two distinct areas of mathematics.
