Career Talk: A few learnings from my career in leadership at University by Dr. Dina Petranovic Nielsen
In my talk I will briefly walk you through my career development from my native country Croatia, via France, Denmark, Sweden and USA and I will explain what I wanted to achieve in my career: why and how I made the decisions that I did, and how those have served me. I will select a few main learnings that can be used as advice for everyone. I will use the example of my current job as the Chief Science Officer, Chief Partnerships Officer and Senior Executive Advisor to the Provost to explain how I work in the context of my union (EU), country (Denmark), in the context of my University (Technical University of Denmark) and the context of my research center (Center for Biosustainability), and how hopefully it all comes together to benefit the world.

Analysis on Metric Spaces Seminar 2025 | Topological regularity of Busemann spaces, Professor Tadashi Fujioka, Kyoto University
We discuss the topological regularity theorem for Busemann spaces of nonpositive curvature, while reviewing the corresponding results for Alexandrov spaces and CAT spaces. All of these are metric spaces with upper or lower curvature bounds in some synthetic senses, and we address the question of when such spaces are topological manifolds. This is joint work with Shijie Gu (Northeastern University, China). Preprint available at arXiv:2504.14455.
