Hylleraas seminar, hosted in Oslo

Your brain has its own waterscape: whether you are reading, thinking or sleeping, fluid flows through or around the brain tissue, clearing waste in the process. These biophysical processes are crucial for the well-being and function of the brain. In spite of their importance we understand them but little, and mathematical and computational modelling could play a crucial role in gaining new insight. In this talk, I will give an overview of mathematical, mechanical and numerical approaches to understand mechanisms underlying pulsatility, fluid flow and solute transport in the human brain. Topics include fluid-structure interactions, generalized poroelasticity, mixed finite element discretizations and preconditioning, uncertainty quantification, and optimal control.

Welcome to the GEOHYD Lunch Seminar Monday 10th of November @ 12:15 in Aud. 1, Geology building, or via video link using Zoom. The seminar is held by Trine Jahr Hegdahl (NVE).

Pascal Sado will defend his thesis “Machine Learning in Auroral Image Research; Aurora Image Classification using Machine Learning Techniques and Substorm Forecasting” for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor at the University of Oslo, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences.

_{Weekly Theory Seminar.}

Gerd Kortemeyer and Guillame Schiltz from ETA Physics will hold a seminar about IA for education. 

Gerd is Director of Educational Development and Technology at ETH Zurich, Switzerland. Dr. Guillaume Schiltz is Lecturer at the Department of Physics ETH Zurich, Switzerland. 

Vidar Skogvoll: 

The Learning Assistant (LA) program is KURT’s program for providing group teachers at the UiO MatNat Faculty with basic pedagogy and group management skills to lead effective seminars - implementing active learning, fostering discussion and encouraging attendance.

The LA-model was developed at the University of Colorado Boulder in 2002, has been subject to several research efforts demonstrating its impact and was implemented by Tor Ole Odden at UiO in 2018. In the fall of 2023, I took over the project and have completed my first iteration of the program with complete attendance from all 17 group teachers and received positive feedback.

In this talk, I will lay out the program as it was implemented this fall, share the feedback I have received, discuss reflections that I have made, and ask for your insight on areas of improvement.
