One World Probability project
Welcome to the One World Probability project!
The One World Probability project is an online platform for research seminars, workshops and schools in probability theory. Started during the Covid-19 epidemic in 2020, the project intends to bring together researchers from all over the world in a virtual and inclusive environment. In person seminars are again the most common way to share knowledge, but due to the law of proximity, not all researchers get the opportunity to listen or present to all relevant works - this project aims to help mitigate this by removing physical barriers that arise due to location and affiliation. The project is a community wide initiative supported by the Bernoulli Society and the Institute of Mathematical Statistics. It runs the regular online One World Probability Seminar, and supports online workshops and schools.
The project had and still has an experimental character. Though we now understand how to work with online tools and learn how to deal with the vulnerabilities and bottlenecks of online traffic, the nature and future of this project remains in flux. Please join us in the long journey ahead!
The project benefits from many volunteers from all over the world that help to chair seminar talks, organise schools, design websites (thanks to Andris Gerasimovics!) , etc.
