The Interdisciplinary Research Institute for Mathematical and Statistical Modelling in Scientific Discovery, Innovation and Sustainability (MS2Discovery) connects researchers working in mathematical and statistical modelling in various disciplines – from natural sciences and technology, finance, business and economics, and social sciences. MS2Discovery strives to create a dynamic and engaging environment conducive to interdisciplinary research, collaboration and communication.
MS2Discovery increases public awareness of the key role mathematical and statistical modelling plays in our society. The institute promotes interdisciplinary research and education through events and publications. It engages multiple stakeholders including industry, policy makers and the public. The institute serves as a platform to enhance the research experience of faculty, students, postdoctoral fellows and visiting scholars.
Membership is open to all faculty at Laurier and partner institutions who are interested in participating in research and/or activities within the institute's priority areas.
If you are a student who is supervised by our faculty, or you are interested in a project within the institute's priority areas, become a student member to get involved in our activities.
To become a member or volunteer for our activities, contact ms2discovery@wlu.ca.
MS2Discovery strives to create a dynamic and engaging environment that is highly conducive to interdisciplinary research, collaboration, and communication.
The AMMCS Conference Series promotes interdisciplinary research and collaboration involving mathematical and computational sciences within a larger international community, and highlights recent advances in Applied Mathematics, Modeling and Computational Science (AMMCS). This year, the event will be a joint meeting with the ALIFE conference and will be held Aug. 17-21, 2026.
