Led by Professors W.
Wreszinski
(IFUSP) and M. O'Carroll and
R. Schor
(UFMG/USP, UFMG) a dozen of mathematical physicists from the
University of Sao Paulo
and the Federal University of Minas Gerais got a CNPq-Pronex grant
that
will help to promote scientific collaboration within members from
these
institutions as well as to bring people from abroad. We have
received the
visits of Professors Tom Spencer (IAS-Princeton) and Jim Howland
(UVA,
Charlottesville), Professors D.C. Brydges (UVA, Charlottesville),
K. Fredenhagen
(Hamburg), K. Gawedzki (IHES-Paris) and A. Kupiainen (Helsinki
University
and Finland Academy of Sciences). In November 1999, we organized
the 2nd
Pronex 203 Mathematical Physics Meeting, at the Physics Institute,
USP,
Sao Paulo. You can have the meeting program here

I have been also involved with a Curriculum Reform in our campus,
and I have
been coordinating the establishment of a Calculus Laboratory at
our Institute,
with support from the PACDT/CAPES
and from a partnership with a REENGE
(CNPq)
project
leading by the School of Engineering EESC-USP
.
With M.A.S. Ruas, I organized the meeting "Encontro:
A Informática no Ensino da Matemática", November 6-7,
1997, where more than 80 persons (students, teachers and
researchers) from
across the country came together to exchange ideas on the use of
the computer
in Mathematics teaching. You can have more information about our
project
in LABCALC.
