The NordCO₂ Annual Meeting 2021 will take place 25th – 26th November 2021 at the Hylleraas Centre, University of Oslo.

The Information System Seminar Series features, Jason Thatcher, the Milton F. Stauffer Professorship in the Department of Management Information Systems at the Fox School of Business of Temple University, US.

Doctoral candidate Bjørgunn Heggem Dalslåen at the Department of Geosciences, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis The Early to Late Ordovician rock record of the Oppdal area, Scandinavian Caledonides: Explosive volcanism, element recycling and basin infill during closure of the Iapetus Ocean for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor.

Regulatory mechanisms behind muscle memory

For the third year in a row, STORM and TMS organize a workshop on rough path theory and related topics. It is held on 25-26 November 2021. 

NordCO₂ is collaborating with the ITN CO₂PERATE to organise the 2021 Winter School, which will take place over the course of three days from the 22nd to the 24th of November this year.

I will present a possible model for task design of mathematical programming problems (MPPs), where both the overarching design and a concrete example is given.

Following the implementation of the design into a mathematics classroom, I will present the students interactions when they were working on MPPs as well as a short analysis of the findings.

Finally, presenting the types of obstacles students encounter when working on MPPs and a discussion regarding the different types. There will be examples from the MPPs, experiences from the implementation, and questions/discussion throughout the module.

Every second Tuesday, CBA staff gather for lunch and a talk. On November 23rd, the talk will be given by PhD student Robin Zweigel. 

Title: Untangling permafrost-ecosystems in Mongolia

We have the pleasure of having three speakers, Miria Grisot, Jens Kaasbøll, and Sundeep Sahay, presenting some of the latest research projects on digitalization and health.

Please join our new digital transdisciplinary lab organized by our Klaipeda University partner. The main topic will be Sustainable Solutions for a Harbour City. We invite 3 to 5 students and one teacher to join our new transdisciplinary lab that will take place online during 22 of November-3 of December. The first 2 days students and teachers will attend lectures from different speakers and after that they will have to choose one or more topics from the picture under, identify such a challenge in the University campus and work together with others in order to find innovative solutions.

Molecular phylogenetics and genus delimitation in the Rhizocarpaceae (lichenized ascomycetes) with focus on the Rhizocarpon hochstetteri-complex

Doctoral candidate Bente Konst, at the Department of Physics, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis Development of novel methods for quality control and optimization of digital planar X-ray and fluoroscopic imaging for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor.

Abstract:  Swimming bacteria, growing cell tissues, molecular motors, and microtubule systems confined to a substrate are examples of active matter films that exhibit long-range nematic (orientational) order. Intrinsic activity in these systems builds mechanical stresses that tend to destroy local nematic order through topological defects, which act as sources of persistent active flows.  The overall evolution and functionality of biological matter is greatly influenced by these orientational defects. Yet, their formation and dynamics are driven by a complex interplay between topological singularities in the nematic order and active flow instabilities, and this is not completely understood.
