From September 9th to 13th, our Faculty will host "Diffusion in Warsaw" - a workshop exploring current trends in diffusion modeling from various mathematical perspectives. It will focus not only on partial differential equations but also on probabilistic approaches and numerical methods.

Our students, staff, and alumni performed exceptionally well at the International Championship in Mathematical Games. In the following categories:

- L2 (students): Robert Soboński won 1st place, and Konrad Czarnecki took 2nd place;

- GP (adults not professionally involved in mathematics): Łukasz Kalinowski - 1st place;

- HC (professionals in mathematics): Łukasz Bożyk took first place.

Congratulations!!!
