Ocean as Territory and the Conundrum of Culture in Deep Seabed Mining Advocacy

Touqeer Ahmad recently joined the Department of Mathematics at UiO as a postdoctoral research fellow under the DSTrain–MSCA program. His project will focus on the stochastic modelling of natural processes. Before that, he was a postdoctoral research fellow at the Institut Denis Poisson, Université d’Orléans, France, from May 2025 to October 2025. There, he worked on the missing data problem in high-dimensional environmental time series as part of the JUNON project. Prior to that, he also held a postdoctoral position at ENSAI, France, from May 2023 to April 2025, where he worked on machine learning and data mining of extreme values in massive data under a prestigious Région Bretagne research grant. He earned a PhD in statistics with the Doctor Europaeus Label in June 2023 from the Department of Statistical Sciences at the University of Padova, Italy. His doctoral research focused on the modeling of discrete extreme values.

Since AI chatbots were first released, new ways of using large language models have been developed, like AI agents and integrated coding tools. AI chatbots themselves have also changed enormously, and new models are constantly being released to the public as private companies compete to offer the very best models.

Title: Exploring environmental controls on cloud behaviour using model emulators

Speaker: Ken Carslaw, University of Leeds

Gråspurven er arten med størst utbredelse blant verdens ville fugler. Dens enorme suksess kan knyttes til dens tilpasninger til menneskeskapte nisjer. Professor og forfatter Glenn-Peter Sætre er aktuell med bok om gråspurven, og vil i dette foredraget belyse hvordan de tette båndene mellom spurven og mennesket har oppstått og hvilke konsekvenser det har fått.

What does reform in research assessment look like in practice? Join us in this Open Science Lunch for three different perspectives on implementing reforms in research assessment.

Welcome to this week's lunch seminar with Camilla Hagen Blixhavn. This talk explores how 3D brain atlases and the EBRAINS platform can organize and link existing cloud-based brain data to create a “Google Maps for the brain,” enabling discovery and reuse of multimodal research data.
