🔗 Workshop Information
🎲 I’m excited to be co-organizing the Stochastic Computation Workshop at FoCM 2026, alongside Mireille Bossy and David Cohen: two outstanding researchers with deep expertise in the field. The workshop will take place July 13-15 in Vienna, Austria.
We’ll focus on recent developments at the intersection of stochastic processes and numerical analysis, with topics including:
- Markov Chain Monte Carlo
- Numerical methods for SDEs and SPDEs
- Diffusion-based generative modeling
Here is the list of confirmed speakers.

There will also be a poster session (up to 15 posters), and we strongly encourage PhD students and early-career researchers to apply.
If you’re working in stochastic computation or nearby areas, I hope you’ll consider joining us. It’s going to be a great chance to share ideas, connect with others in the community, and enjoy everything that FoCM, and Vienna in July, has to offer.
Hope to see you there!
