Let C be a generalised based category (to be defined) and R a commutative ring with identity. In this talk, we construct a cohomology theory in the category B_R(C) of contravariant functors from C to the category of R-modules in an axiomatic way, This cohomology theory generalises simultaneously Bredon cohomology involving finite, profinite, and discrete groups. We also study higher K-theory of the categories of finitely generated projective objects and and finitely generated objects in B_R(C) and obtain some finiteness and other results.  

Sex differences in vital rates and mate availability can have important effects on population- and evolutionary dynamics. These effects and how they vary depending on mating strategies can be explored with extensions to traditional matrix models.

We will discuss tests for positive selection and evolutionary processes involved in host specificity in insect pathogens in the recent study of Kobmoo et al.

Atmospheric and climate sciences have a stronghold in Oslo among the four institutions University of Oslo, the Meteorological Institute, CICERO and NILU. This joint seminar invites renowned international experts to contribute to an informal series of lectures, meant to create interaction with the Oslo atmospheric and climate science community on recent highlights and analysis in the field. All seminars will be held on Thursdays (Noon -1pm) and lunch (sandwiches) will be served on a “first-come-first-served”-basis.

This is a partial report on a joint work with G. Garkusha. The triangulated category of framed bispectra SH^fr_nis(k) is introduced. This triangulated category only uses Nisnevich local equivalences and has nothing to do with any kind of motivic equivalences. It is proved that SH^fr_nis(k) recovers the classical Morel-Voevodsky triangulated categories of bispectra SH(k), provided the base field k is infinite and perfect.

Emanuele Gramuglia (Department of Mathematics, University of Oslo) will give a talk on October 9th at 14:15 in the Seminar Room 819, Niels Henrik Abels hus, 8th floor.

This years iGEM (International Genetically Engineered Machine) team from UiO will present their project entitled "Canditect - Fast detection of vulvovaginal Candida albicans using CRISPR/dCas9"

Are perineuronal nets in the medial prefrontal cortex critical in the prepulse inhibition of the acoustic startle reflex in mice?

Ingrid Van Keilegom (Department of OR and Business Statistics, Catholic University of Leuven) will give a talk on Monday, October 1st at 14:15 in the Seminar Room 819, Niels Henrik Abels hus, 8th floor.

How can organisms maintain stable internal conditions in a changing environment or during growth? The concept of homeostasis has been important for understanding physiological regulation, development of disease and more recently for bioengineering and synthetic biology.
