Participant Testimonials
This meeting, while short, was very good. In particular, it provided an extremely timely occasion to meet with Noah Forman of Oxford and exchange ideas concerning some long standing problems.
The Retreat for Young Researchers in Stochastics at BIRS was well organized. It provided a valuable opportunity to present my research and an occasion to learn recent and exciting results on a variety of topics.

The BIRS Retreat for Young Researchers in Stochastics was a very enjoyable and valuable weekend. I had the opportunity to present my research and had interesting discussions about it. I also had the chance to meet new researchers and reconnect with people I have met before. I hope this retreat becomes a tradition for years to come, as it is clearly very valuable for the community.

The BIRS Retreat for Young Researchers in Stochastics provided a wonderful opportunity for postdocs and graduate students in probability, from universities in Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia, and Washington, to meet, to share ideas, to present their research, and to get to know one another. This is a valuable exercise in community building, as well as a chance for participants to learn the latest results from a wide spectrum of topics related to stochastics.

BIRS is a great place to meet great researchers, including the young ones, to create new projects and new contacts. The last retreat for Young Researchers in Stochastics supported this idea one more time.
