Dear Colleague,

Please forgive this impersonal mode of contact, but there
are interesting research opportunities and activities
coming up at MSRI (Fall 2013) and Fields (Fall 2014) that I
wanted to bring to your attention --- especially as the deadlines
for applying to participate in the MSRI semester are fast
approaching.

1. I am involved in organizing the 19 Aug - 20 Dec 2013 research
semester at MSRI Berkeley on
``OPTIMAL TRANSPORTATION: GEOMETRY AND DYNAMICS''
http://www.msri.org/web/msri/scientific/programs/show/-/event/Pm8952

This will run in parallel with a semester on
``MATHEMATICAL GENERAL RELATIVITY''
http://www.msri.org/web/msri/scientific/programs/show/-/event/Pm8946

I am writing to encourage you to consider participating
in these programs through a short-term or long-term stay.

Applications are now open for Research Professorships (deadline
1 Oct 2012),  Research Memberships (deadline 1 Dec 2012) and
Postdoctoral Fellowships (deadline 1 Dec 2012) as appropriate

http://www.msri.org/web/msri/scientific/member-application

I encourage you to consider applying yourself,  and to bring
these activities to the attention of other potential applicants
and participants,  including young researchers and future
postdoctoral fellows.

2. These activities above be followed one year later by
a companion semester, somewhat broader in scope,
July - Dec 2014 at the Fields Institute in Toronto, on

``VARIATIONAL PROBLEMS IN PHYSICS, ECONOMICS AND GEOMETRY''
http://www.fields.utoronto.ca/programs/scientific/14-15/variationalprob/index.html

in which I hope you will also be interested in participating
when the time comes.  Applications for this program are not
yet open,  although potential postdoctoral fellows may
consider applying either in the fall of 2012 or of 2013 for a
2 year Fields Ontario Postdoctoral Fellowship

If you could help publicize this opportunity also,
I would be grateful.

Hoping to see you in Berkeley or Toronto!

With best regards,

Robert
