NEMSA

The Northeast-Midlands Stochastic Analysis Seminar (NEMSA) is a seminar series jointly organised by the Universities of Durham, Oxford, Warwick and York. The seminars normally take place four times a year, rotating between the four organising institutions.

In 2025, the Warwick leg of NEMSA will be held on 18 June 2025 at the University of Warwick.

The P@WLink opens in a new windowLink opens in a new window Summer School - Recent Trends in Probability and Statistics is the inaugural summer school in Probability and Statistics that will be held at the University of Warwick from the 7th-11th July 2025.

The purpose of the school is to engage PhD students and early-career researchers with cutting-edge topics at the frontiers of current knowledge. It will feature four lecture courses by leading experts that will explore recent developments on different themes: stochastic PDEs, random planar maps, directed polymers and Bayesian inference for time evolution PDEs. The programme will be complemented by discussion and exercise sessions so to maximise interaction among participants and speakers.

This hackathon-style event is an opportunity to collaborate on contributions to R, the widely used software environment for data science. Working in small groups, participants will analyse/propose fixes for bugs in the code or documentation of R (the base/recommended packages or the Windows/macOS GUIs); add/update translations of messages from English to other languages, or improve contributor infrastructure such as the R Dev Container (a Docker container providing an environment for R development) or the R Dev Guide (a Quarto-based online book). Participants will be selected by application to balance across experience levels. Thanks to RSECon25 sponsors and the R Dev Day sponsor, EPSRC, full scholarships to attend both RSECon25 and R Dev Day are available for participants from the Global South, while partial scholarships are available for participants from the UK and Europe. New and experienced contributors from any country are welcome to apply!
