Monte Verita, Ascona, Ticino, Switzerland
The conference centers on random structures in the context of complex
analysis, inspired by interactions between mathematics and physics. The central
example is perhaps the Stochastic Loewner Evolution, introduced by Oded Schramm.
SLE arises as the scaling limit of interfaces in 2D lattice models at
criticality (percolation, Ising model, self avoiding polymers), and its elegant
combination of probability and complex analysis has led to the proofs of many
conjectures originating in physics. Other topics include Diffusion Limited
Aggregation (a model for electrodeposition and other phenomena), Hele-Shaw flow
(describing interfaces between fluids of different viscosities, e.g. oil and
water), 2D Quantum Gravity and Random Maps.

The Probability at Warwick Young Researchers Workshop will be held from
19th-23rd July 2010. It has the principal aim of bringing together young
researchers working in probability and will feature lecture courses by two
excellent invited speakers, intended to be accessible to graduate mathematicians
and probabilists: Trickle-down growth models, Doob- Martin boundaries, and
random matrices, Prof. Steve Evans (University of California, Berkeley)
Regularity and convergence of diffusion processes, Prof. Martin Hairer
(University of Warwick). Registration is now open. For further details, please

The Brazilian School of Probability (EBP) has been organized each year since 1997. It is an initiative of the Brazilian probabilistic community, planned as a forum for the discussion of new ideas and developments in Probability and related areas. It is an opportunity to detect new research directions and to establish new collaborations, and an excellent occasion for students to start their scientific life. The EBP has been organized by IMPA, in Rio de Janeiro, by IME-USP and IMECCUNICAMP, in São Paulo, and by UFMG in Ouro Preto.
The 14th edition of the Brazilian School of Probability (XIV EBP) will take place jointly with the 2010 Annual Clay Mathematics Institute Summer School "Probability and Statistical Physics in Two and more Dimensions" at its fourth week. The joint event will be held in Búzios, Rio de Janeiro, from August 1 to 7, 2010.

Asmussen
August 1-5, 2011 Sandbjerg Estate, Sønderborg, Denmark
The conference honours one of the leading researchers in Applied Probability, Søren Asmussen, on the occasion of his 65th birthday. An impressive list of 35 speakers have agreed to contribute to the conference. Among them are the main speakers Hansjörg Albrecher (Lausanne), Ole Barndorff-Nielsen (Aarhus), Mogens Bladt (Mexico), Daryl Daley (ANU Canberra), Serguei Foss (Heriot Watt Edinburgh), Peter Glynn (Stanford), Martin Jacobsen (Copenhagen), Peter Jagers (Chalmers U. Gothenburg), Lester Lipsky (Storrs), Thomas Mikosch (Copenhagen), Reuven Rubinstein (Technion), Tomasz Rolski (Wroclaw), Karl Sigman (Columbia U. New York), Hermann Thorisson (Reykjavik).
The talks will present the state of the art of Applied Probability.
The Scientific Organizing Committee, consisting of

The 58th World Statistics Congress of the International Statistical Institute (ISI) will take place in Dublin, from the 21st to the 26th August 2011. The Bernoulli Society, as a section of the ISI, sponsors different Invited Paper Sessions (IPS), Special Topics Sessions (STS) and Satellite meetings as well. With this announcement we want to call, and to encourage people, for proposals of STS and Satellite meetings that can be attractive to the members of our Society. Please visit the web page of the meeting: www.isi2011.ie, to know the way to submit your proposals and, please, do your submission as soon as you can. You might also find it useful to visit the websites of the previous editions of the ISI Congress in Durban 2009 www.statssa.gov.za/isi2009/ and in Lisbon 2007 www.isi2007.com.pt/isi2007/, as a reference for these activities.
See you in Dublin next year!
