Most of you have now spent the last three semesters working on one of the biggest projects of your life so far: your master thesis project. In collaboration with KURT, we want to give you the chance to join a workshop that will give you a space to learn how to create your master thesis.
Åke Fagereng (Cardiff University): Effects of heterogeneity on fault slip behaviour
Hylleraas seminar, hosted in Tromsø
Abstract: If a droplet smaller than the capillary length is placed on a substrate with a conical shape, it spreads by itself in the direction of growing fibre radius. We describe this capillary spreading dynamics by developing a lubrication flow approximation on a cone and by using the perturbation method of matched asymptotic expansions. The droplet velocity is found to increase with the cone angle but decrease with the cone radius. We show that a film is formed at the receding part of the droplet, much like the classical Landau–Levich–Derjaguin film. By using the approach of matching asymptotic profiles in the film region and the quasi-static droplet, we obtain the same film thickness as the results from the lubrication approach. Our results show that manipulating the droplet size, the cone angle and the slip length provides different schemes for guiding droplet motion and coating the substrate with a film.
This talk is part of the Mechanics Lunch Seminar series. That means 20min talks plus discussion in an informal setting.

Organelle DNA is less protected than nuclear DNA and the risk of mutations could be high. How do eukaryotic organelles avoid the gradual buildup of deleterious mutations in the organelle DNA until function is lost?

Søknadsfristen til masterstudier nærmer seg. For å gjøre det enklere å finne ut hva de forskjellige studieretningene tilbyr, arrangerer vi et digitalt infomøte.
This event includes popular science talks by the research fellows of the ABINO project with expertise in biology, musicology, and physics.
There will be organised two workshops for potential applicants to new convergence environments. The second one will be 2 March. Participation in one of the workshops is mandatory for submitting an application.

Title: Building blocks of a model for the Arctic Ocean circulation: or how the Arctic Ocean kind of works like the atmosphere
Speaker: Pål Erik Isachsen, Department of Geosciences, UiO
Doctoral candidate Sondre Andreas Engebråten at the Department of informatics, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis Concurrent multi-tasking drone swarms through quality-diversity methods and COTS hardware for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor.

We invite you to join scientists and philosophers from the UiO:Life Science convergence environment 3DR to discuss the clinical and biological challenges that come with the ethics of organ donation in Norway, and discover our source of inspiration to improve organ preservation for donation: the crucian carp inhabiting Norwegian ponds. This online seminar will include short presentations, a discussion and various activities (polls and Q&A sessions).
The ultimate boundaries of human reproduction lie at the limited availability of egg and sperm. The ability to create sperm and eggs in the laboratory opens up a new world of reproductive possibilities. Imagine a world in which same sex couples can have babies genetically related to both partners. Where the menopause no longer spells the end of a woman’s fertility. Where any individual, of any age, can produce both sperm and eggs.
