****REGISTRATION ENDS TUESDAY April 29 at 12 midnight.*****

The 9th annual Guelph Biomathematics and Biostatistics Symposium will be held on May 2, 2014 in the Arboretum Auditorium, set in the heart of the Arboretum at the University of Guelph. The principal objective of the symposium is to facilitate collaborations between mathematicians, statisticians and bioscience researchers. This year's theme is on the mathematics and statistics of food safety. The symposium consists of two keynote lectures (including the Gordon C. Ashton Memorial Biometrics Lecture), and several invited talks. There will also be a poster session for graduate and undergraduate students, with a prize awarded for the best poster. This year's symposium is intended to provide exposure to various mathematical and statistical techniques used in the field of food safety. Funding provided by FIELDS Institute and the Department of Mathematics & Statistics, University of Guelph.
