“A diverse set of minisyposiums and speakers will showcase exciting research where computation plays a pivotal role. In line with missions of SIAM and the Department of Scientific Computing, the meeting will foster interdisciplinary discussions between academia, industry, and government agencies,” says Quaife.

Conference lodging is downtown at the DoubleTree, located at the corner of Park Avenue and S. Adams Street. The Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics marries math, science and technology through membership, publishing, and conferences.
