By this year's Birkeland lecturer, professor Tuija I. Pulkkinen

Department of Climate and Space Sciences and Engineering, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI

Det store i det lille og det lille i det store. Hvordan ser vi mennesker ut fra månen? Hva slags matematiske mønstre finner vi i naturen, og hvordan styrer algoritmer handlingene dine? Forskere og studenter ved UiO forteller om hva som inspirerer og fascinerer dem - på fem minutter hver.

UiO satser stort på livsvitenskap og ønsker å bidra til ny helsenæring. Thermo Fisher Scientific er ett av firmaene som har lykkes med å ta norske forskningsresultater videre til anvendelse over hele verden, samtidig som de har bevart aktivitet i Norge. Hva ser de etter hos studenter fra UiO, og hva kan de tilby? Møt også en ung forsker fra UiO:Livsvitenskaps innovasjonsprogram SPARK Norway.

Skal universitetet spille en rolle i å løse klimakrisen? Hvilken effekt har skolestreikene? Må professorer fly, og hvordan skal vi utdanne fremtidige studenter til et bærekraftig arbeidsliv? Vi tar debattene på Kulturhuset.

Olli Saarela (Dalla Lana School of Public Health, University of Toronto, CAN) will give a talk on September 24th at 14:15 in the Erling Sverdrups plass, Niels Henrik Abels hus, 8th floor.

Counting problems have been shown to be challenging for students to solve correctly, and one reason is that they can be difficult to verify (e.g., Eizenberg & Zaslavsky, 2004).

Abstract:  "The study of foliations falls largely into two parts: One can study the leaf geometry or one can study transversally elliptic operators. The leaf geometry consists of studying the individual submanifolds and how they lie within the manifold. On the other hand, the study of transversally elliptic operators was initiated in the seminal work of Atiyah. This talk will be arranged as follows: The first part will be an introduction to Riemannian foliations and transverse geometry, and the second part is a survey of the results on transversally elliptic operators, foliated gauge theory and some recent work."  

In response to the growing emphasis on computational thinking in K-12 education standards and modern science professions, our research team designed a year-long professional development series for high school physics teachers to learn how to program and utilize computer simulations in their curricula.
