Inaugural Workshop of the EC TMR Network "Mechanics and Symmetry in Europe" (MASIE) 2-5 JUNE 2000 Mathematics Institute University of Warwick |
This 4 day workshop will also incorporate a one-day meeting of the London Mathematical Society Scheme 3 MASIE UK Project, and a Warwick MIR@W Day on Dynamics and Spectra of Atoms and Molecules.
The meeting is open to all. Please e-mail Hazel Graley at the University of Warwick's Mathematics Research Centre if you wish to participate. Some funding is available to support graduate students at UK universities who wish to attend this meeting. E-mail Mark Roberts for further details.
