It’s a couple of weeks since the 2017 SIAM Annual Meeting, which I previewed in an earlier post. The meeting was held at the David Lawrence Convention Center in Pittsburgh and was co-chaired by Des Higham (University of Strathclyde) and Jennifer Mueller (Colorado State University).
The approximately 1150 attendees enjoyed five days packed from morning to evening with lectures, panel sessions, careers events, professional development sessions, and other activities.
You can catch up with what went on at the meeting in several ways.
