The Canadian Mathematical Society (CMS) welcomes and invites session proposals and mini-course proposals for the 2021 CMS Winter Meeting held in Vancouver on December 3-6.
Call for Sessions
Proposals should include
- names, affiliations, and contact information for two (or more) session co-organizers,
- a title and brief description of the focus and purpose of the session,
- a preliminary list of potential speakers with their affiliations and if they have agreed to participate, along with a total number of expected speakers.
Sessions will take place December 4, 5, and 6. Sessions will be advertised in the CMS Notes, on the website and in the AMS Notices. Speakers will be requested to submit abstracts, which will be published on the website and in the meeting program. Those wishing to organize a session should send a proposal to the Scientific directors and copy the CMS office. Potential organizers are encouraged to consider diversity in their selection of session invitees.
Proposals should be submitted by May 30, 2021.
Call for Mini-Courses
The CMS is organizing three-hour mini-courses to add more value to meetings and make them attractive for students and researchers to attend.
The Mini-courses will be held on Friday afternoon, December 3rd, before the public lecture, and include topics suitable for graduate students, postdocs and other interested parties.
Proposals should include names, affiliations, and contact information for all the mini-course organizers and title and brief description of the focus of the mini-course.
