Submitted by Jasmine Smart on Thu, 2013/01/31 - 11:28am

The institute will take place between Sunday, July 14 and Saturday, July 20, on the shores of Lake Huron.

Each year the Rotman Summer Institute brings graduate students together with exceptional faculty from around the world to focus on a topic of special interest.

This year’s institute is aimed at fostering an understanding of conceptual issues in the foundations of statistical mechanics.  The goal for students is to come away from the course prepared to engage the philosophical literature on the foundations of statistical mechanics at a professional level.
