Nassif Ghoussoub 2019 CRM-Fields-PIMS Prize Recipient<\/h1>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The 2019 CRM-Fields-PIMS Prize is awarded to Nassif Ghoussoub of the University of British Columbia (UBC). The prize was given by a high-level international committee chosen by the three institutes. The announcement was made at the Awards Banquet of the Canadian Mathematical Society Winter Meeting in Vancouver on December 9, 2018.<\/p>\n

Nassif Ghoussoub has a remarkable record of deep, original, and influential contributions to the theory and applications of functional analysis, the calculus of variations, and partial differential equations. His pioneering work on the resolution of De-Giorgi\u2019s conjecture, on the PDE of microelectromechanical systems, and on the theory of self-dual PDE have all had a lasting impact on mathematical analysis. This is in addition to his extraordinary contributions to Canadian mathematics in general.<\/p>\n

Nassif Ghoussoub obtained his Ph.D. from Universit\u00e9 Pierre et Marie Curie in 1975. Shortly thereafter he joined the Mathematics Department at UBC, where he is currently Distinguished University Professor. Professor Ghoussoub\u2019s contributions have been recognized by the Coxeter-James, Jeffery-Williams and David Borwein Awards of the Canadian Mathematical Society, honorary doctorates from Universit\u00e9 Paris-Dauphine and the University of Victoria, and Fellowship in the American Mathematical Society and the Royal Society of Canada. He is an Officer of the Order of Canada.<\/p>\n
