Scientific Events: Organisation

M. Herda co-organized the yearly Journée de la Fédération de Recherche Mathématique du Nord-Pas-de-Calais which took place on October 15 in Lille. This one-day conference brought together all the maths research laboratories from the Hauts-de-France region and gave the opportunity to new permanent members to present their research.

E. Creusé was part of the organizing committee of the first Rencontres Mathématiques Valenciennoises, that were held on March 13. This meeting was organized for maths students at Université Polytechnique Hauts-de-France as well as for high-school students of Lycée Wallon in Valenciennes. Several researchers presented some applications of mathematics in industry as well as in academic research. This meeting gathered around 500 participants.

T. Rey organized the yearly ANEDP team day at Laboratoire Paul Painlevé on December 17.

C. Cancès and T. Rey co-organized mini-symposia on, respectively, (i) cross-diffusion systems and (ii) novel time discretization methods and moment models for kinetic equations at ICIAM 2019 in Valencia. S. Lemaire co-organized a mini-symposium on polytopal methods at MAFELAP 2019 in Brunel University, London.
