The Ontario Combinatorics Workshop is an annual meeting for researchers working in combiatorics from Ontario and surrounding areas. The setting of the meeting is informal to provide a friendly environment for students and postdoctoral fellows to present their results, to exchange ideas, and to gain exposure to various topics in combinatorics.
At the 2014 meeting, held from May 17-18 at York University, Combinatorics and Optimization PhD student Gabriel Coutinho received the Peter Rodney Memorial Book Prize for the student who gives the best talk at the workshop. Gabriel's talk was on Recent developments in quantum state transfer, the topic of his PhD thesis which he is about to defend under the supervision of Professor Chris Godsil.
Congratulations Gabriel!
