Banff International Research Station Details
MandateThe Banff International Research Station (BIRS) is a joint Canada-US-Mexico initiative that provides an environment for creative interaction and the exchange of ideas, knowledge, and methods within the Mathematical Sciences, and with related sciences and industry. BIRS is located on the site of the world-renowned Banff Centre in Alberta. It has its own building (Corbett Hall) and facilities which allow mathematical scientists a secluded environment, complete with accommodation and board, and the necessary facilities, for uninterrupted research activities in a variety of formats, all in a magnificent mountain setting.The principal BIRS activities are the five-day workshops, but there are also provisions for two-day events, suitable for promoting industry-academic collaborations, and for Research in Teams/Focussed Research Groups to live and to do research together in a non-workshop/non-conference style setting at BIRS for periods of 1 to 2 weeks. In addition, BIRS hosts summer schools and graduate training camps.The BIRS mandate is to embrace all aspects of the mathematical, computational and statistical sciences from the most fundamental challenges of pure and applied mathematics, theoretical and applied computer science, statistics, and mathematical physics, to financial and industrial mathematics, as well as the mathematics of information technology, and the life sciences.Nassif Ghoussoub,Scientific Director, Banff International Research Station
