Title: Unfolding dual gravity fields in E11

OIST and JAIST entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) last year. As part of our collaborative efforts in research, both universities have agreed to leverage each other's strengths through cooperation. To commemorate the first anniversary of the MOU signing, a celebratory event will be held at OIST on November 27th.

Human prosperity has advanced alongside the development of science and technology, opening numerous uncharted frontiers. This symposium aims to foster transdisciplinary research and catalyze new collaborations among researchers from diverse fields. We warmly invite your participation.

9th Okinawa Marine Science Workshop

Speaker: Prof. Ki-Ahm Lee (Seoul National University)

Title: Degenerate nonlinear partial differential equations in curvature flows

Speaker: Prof. John Parker(Durham University)

Cinematic Chemistry: The Journey of Electron Microscopy from Molecular Movies to Molecular Statistics

This event will bring together some junior and senior researchers to exchange and discuss the new developments in representation theory of algebras, combinatorics, algebraic geometry, polytopal geometry, cluster algebras and some aspects of theoretical physics. After a 5-day school centred around 4 mini-courses on some new directions of research, the event resumes with a 5-day conference that includes a broader range of subjects and speakers, as well as a poster session. We hope to encourage collaboration and collective research.

Abstract: Biodiversity science often overlooks hyperdiverse insect clades, despite their critical ecosystem services. To illustrate this, I show that over half of the flying insect diversity in many samples is concentrated within 20 family-level clades, regardless of sampling location. By comparing species richness in bulk samples with the number of described species, I highlight how little is known about these clades, leading to the conclusion that new approaches to species discovery and the taxonomy of “dark taxa” are essential. At the Center for Integrative Biodiversity Discovery at the Natural History Museum Berlin, we envision a future where specimen handling and imaging are largely automated, specimens are sorted into putative species using nanopore barcodes, and species descriptions combine molecular and morphological data in a semi-automated process. I will demonstrate how this approach can transform a "dark taxon" like fungus gnats in the Mycetophilidae family from largely unknown in regions like Singapore to sufficiently well-documented for biomonitoring. Finally, I will discuss how images of common species could then be used to use train AI algorithms for a future where many specimens will be identified by images only.
