More than 100 researchers from around the world gathered at Cornell University June 14–20 for the 45th Conference on Stochastic Processes and Their Applications (SPA 2026), one of the world’s leading annual conferences in probability theory. Held under the auspices of the Bernoulli Society and supported by the Institute for Mathematical Statistics, the conference showcased the latest advances in stochastic processes and their applications across mathematics, statistics, engineering, finance, physics and related fields.
The conference was co-hosted by Gennady Samorodnitsky, the Charles W. Lake, Jr. Professor in Productivity in Cornell’s School of Operations Research and Information Engineering and Laurent Saloff-Coste, the Abram Rogers Bullis Professor of Mathematics in Cornell’s Department of Mathematics. Together, they led the local organizing committee that brought the international meeting to Ithaca.
