TSUNAMI Funding and Announcements of Opportunity

TSUNAMI -- Linking Insurance and Science

Invitation to Submit "Your Research Idea"
On Thursday, 11 November, we will hold the second Communications Workshop, for an audience from the insurance industry.

We invite researchers to submit short proposals describing their work. Five of the proposals will be selected and the researchers will present on their work before an audience from the insurance industry, on how their work might give a competitive advantage.
