Registration is now closed.
This summer school will focus on mathematical foundations of inverse problems, at the interface of applied mathematics, statistics and data science. The main aims of the school are to expose the participants to important mathematical concepts and related computational and algorithmic challenges, and to ensure that early career researchers obtain a solid background in some of the mathematical aspects of inverse problems, and the related areas of uncertainty quantification and data assimilation. This workshop is suitable for PhD students and early career researchers with a maths-based degree.
