To Whom it May Concern, while waiting for a change back to the good old days (before Covid-19) you can listen & watch to scientfic talks... Some of them you can even follow if you missed them. e.g., on the YouTube channel of the SIAM Activity Group on Financial Mathematics and Engineering (FTE) you can find the following videos: - Inaugural SIAM Activity Group on FME Virtual Talk (Paul Embrechts) - Second SIAM Activity Group on FME Virtual Talk (Blanca Horvath) https://www.youtube.com/user/SIAMConnects/videos [You can also just search for "FME Virtual Talk" on YouTube] You can find already an impressive list of talks & seminars on: - https://mathseminars.org/ (e.g., filter by the topic "probability") and - as always - a list of suggestions at the end of this email. Additionally you can find information on: - https://fam.tuwien.ac.at/events/ If you listen to a talk which was not mentioned on "mathseminars.org" you might suggest organisers to announce future talks (seminars, events) there.
