Sixth Seminar Retreat 2010

The Sixth Annual IAM Seminar Retreat was organised by Prof. Dan Coombs (IAM Faculty, Mathematics), Prof. Neil Balmforth (IAM Director, Earth and Ocean Sciences and Mathematics) and Dr. Marek Labecki (IAM Research/IT Manager), and took place on Friday, April 16th, 2010. This time, our venue was Inverholme Schoolhouse, a heritage building located in Deas Island Regional Park. The retreat was one of our best ever, with the total of 41 participants and 16 high quality talks covering various areas of applied mathematics – see the Retreat Schedule for more details. During our lunch break, we took a long walk to the westernmost tip of the island, meeting almost eye-to-eye with a bald eagle resting nearby. The weather was excellent, providing us with great views of the river and the mountains. Feel free to browse through our Retreat Pictures and get the feel of this wonderful event.
