ICMS

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: In view of the continuting spread of the COVID-19 virus the ICMS has decided to postpone all events in April and May 2020. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. This is an unprecedented situation and we did not want to put the wellbeing of any of our participants at risk.

The ICMS staff are now all working remotely. Please refer to the staff contact details page for email addresses.

ICMS supports research in the mathematical sciences. Its core activity is the development and organisation of international workshops and conferences in all areas of mathematics and these attract leading mathematical scientists from the UK and abroad.

In addition to workshops, ICMS is involved in a number of other mathematical activities such as small group research programmes, postgraduate training, journal management and outreach. ICMS also hosts events organised by other mathematical and related organisations.

The Scientific Director of ICMS is Professor Paul Glendinning.

The ICMS is located at The Bayes Centre, 47 Potterrow, Edinburgh EH8 9BT.

ICMS is wholly owned by Heriot-Watt University and the University of Edinburgh. It is funded by its parent universities and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council of the UK with additional support from the London Mathematical Society.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION We are aware of a very convincing scam targetting participants in mathematical research events. These scammers may telephone you and tell you that they are organising accommodation in Edinburgh for you on behalf of ICMS. Please do not talk to them. ICMS will never telephone you to ask you for payment details. ICMS does NOT use third parties to arrange accommodation. If you are approached by a third party (e.g. Business Travel Management, or E Hotels) asking for booking or payments details, please ignore. If you have any concerns please contact ICMS.
