UK Dynamical Systems Graduate School

The UK Dynamical Systems Graduate School consists of four one-week schools in different locations around the UK and on different topics in Dynamics. The general level of the schools is introductory to intermediate and in particular the schools are specifically aimed at graduate students and researchers who are not necessarily specialists in the topic of the school.

DSWeb Tutorials Competition '07

DSWeb held a student competition for online tutorials in dynamical systems. The two winning entries are interactive self-paced tutorials that would be of interest to students beginning to learn the subject. They appear in the DSWeb tutorial section.

Yorke elected for article on "Chaos" in Scholarpedia

The Encyclopedia of Dynamical Systems, hosted by Scholarpedia — the free peer-reviewed encyclopedia, is proud to announce the election results for the article "Chaos".

Guckenheimer elected for article on "Bifurcation" in Scholarpedia

The Encyclopedia of Dynamical Systems, hosted by Scholarpedia the free peer-reviewed encyclopedia, conducted an election of authors for the article "Bifurcation" with the goal to identify the best living expert to invite to write such an article.

Nomination of Editors for the Encyclopedia of Dynamical Systems

In addition to 'Scholar' and 'Curator' Scholarpedia now solicits volunteers for the role of 'Editor'. Editors of Scholarpedia will be elected by the public based on their scholarly achievements and reputation in the field (using the same procedure as election of authors).

Scholarpedia: Encyclopedia of Dynamical Systems

The free peer-reviewed Encyclopedia of Dynamical Systems that anybody can edit is well on its way to have a serious collection of articles written by experts in dynamical systems. The Editor-in-Chief Eugene Izhikevich reports on the progress made.

DSWeb Tutorial Receives Honors

A portion of the DSWeb-featured tutorial on cardiac dynamics by Elizabeth Cherry and Flavio Fenton was awarded an honorable mention in the interactive media category of the 2006 Science and Engineering Visualization Challenge created by the National Science Foundation and the journal Science. An interview with the two appears in the November issue of SIAM News.
