OIST Three Minute Thesis Competition

"Performance disruption and predictive processing in expert sensorimotor skills" by Dr. Massimiliano L. Cappuccio, Associate Professor of Cognitive Science at UAE University

hosted by Theory of Quantum Matter Unit.

The seminar aims to introduce research topics in topology, geometry and its interactions with other sciences. Anyone interested in mathematics is welcome to attend.

This week, Dr Josh Howie (Monash University) will discuss relationships between the colored Jones polynomial which is a quantum knot invariant, and the 3-dimensional geometry and topology of knot complements.

Writing in a second language is challenging enough, but writing for publication with specific word limits can seem almost impossible. Join us for this 1-hour interactive training to learn tips and tricks to cut your word count and clarify your writing in English.

OIST Workshop - Preliminary Application Deadline: Dec 20, 2017 - OIST members are welcome to attend all scientific sessions - Website: https://groups.oist.jp/manifolds/workshop

Prof Joel Hass (University of California, Davis) is presenting a public lecture on "Comparing shapes of genus zero". This talk is aimed at a general scientific audience. All are welcome to attend.

Abstract: Almost everything we encounter in our 3-dimensional world is a surface - the outside of a solid object. Moreover there is an explosive increase in the availability of digitized representations of surfaces in 3D. Comparing the shapes of surfaces is, not surprisingly, a fundamental problem in both theoretical and applied mathematics. Facial recognition, drug design and much of radiology, for example, are concerned with comparing and aligning surfaces. Deep mathematical results are now being used to study objects such as bones, brain cortices, proteins and biomolecules by studying their surface geometry. This talk will discuss recent joint work with Patrice Koehl that introduces a new way to align and compare surfaces, and how well it performs relative to other methods and to human experts.
