Photos from the 2023 SIAM Conference on Applications of Dynamical Systems

During the 2023 SIAM Conference on Applications of Dynamical Systems, which took place this May in Portland, Ore., members of the classes of 2022 and 2023 MGB-SIAM Early Career Fellows gathered for a dinner that allowed them to meet, converse, and discuss their respective experiences. The MGB-SIAM Early Career Fellowship reflects a joint commitment by Mathematically Gifted & Black (MGB) and SIAM to promote the Fellows’ long-term engagement with SIAM and continued success within the wider applied mathematics and computational science community.

Crawford Prize from Mason Porter of the University of California, Los Angeles—chair of the SIAM Activity Group on Dynamical Systems—at the 2023 SIAM Conference on Applications of Dynamical Systems (DS23), which took place in Portland, Ore., this May. Booth was honored for her exceptional mathematical biology research on the formulation, analysis, and interpretation of dynamical systems models for sleep-wake cycles. The other prize recipient at DS23 was Yoshiki Kuramoto of Kyoto University in Japan, who delivered the 2023 Jürgen Moser Lecture virtually. SIAM photo.

A lunchtime mentoring session during the 2023 SIAM Conference on Applications of Dynamical Systems, which was held this May in Portland, Ore., allowed attendees to connect and discuss common issues. Alethea Barbaro of Delft University of Technology and Korana Burke of the University of California, Davis organized the session, which attracted nearly 200 participants. Attendees broke into smaller interest groups with particular themes, such as thriving at various career stages, applying for different positions, contending with burnout and maintaining work-life balance, and navigating applied mathematics and computational science as a member and/or ally of an underrepresented group.

Yorke of the University of Maryland, College Park, whose recognizable fashion is the namesake for this prize. Each winner also received $100.00. SIAM photo.

During the 2023 SIAM Conference on Applications of Dynamical Systems, which took place this May in Portland, Ore., the graduate student participants of the Workshop Celebrating Diversity (WCD) enjoyed a luncheon that provided them with the opportunity to meet and converse with other applied and computational mathematicians in a wide variety of careers. These students also presented technical talks at the WCD minisymposium sessions throughout the conference. Christina Edholm of Scripps College chaired the WCD. SIAM photo.
