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.

CYCLE展 2024~創造するエネルギー~

Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (OIST) will organize the first OIST Career Fair on November 14th (Thu.), 2024. This career fair aims to provide opportunities for OIST students and companies in Japan to connect, build professional network, and create future employment. Through this, OIST students will be able to explore industry career paths, and companies will be able to learn the benefits of employing PhD holders.

沖縄科学技術大学院大学（OIST）では初となる、「OISTキャリアフェア2024」を11月14日（木）に開催します。本キャリアフェアは、本学の学生と日本の企業がつながり、プロフェッショナルなネットワークを構築し、将来の雇用を創出する機会を提供することを目的としています。キャリアフェアを通じて、OISTの学生は産業界でのキャリアパスを模索することができ、企業は博士号取得者を雇用するメリットを知る機会となることが期待されます。是非、参加をご検討ください。

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.
