Experimental Particle Physics: "TBA"

Allison McCarn (University of Michigan)

Math-Bio seminar: "Robust and scalable inference of population history from hundreds of unphased whole-genomes"

Jonathan Terhorst, University of California, Berkeley

ADVANCES IN BIOMEDICAL OPTICS SEMINAR: "High-resolution Imaging of Cerebral Oxygen Metabolism and Hemodynamic Responses"

Sava Sakadzic (Harvard)

The understanding of the cortical oxygen delivery and consumption on the microvascular scales may have profound implications for evaluating microvascular oxygen delivery capacity to support cerebral tissue metabolism…

Condensed Matter seminar: "The crumpled state: crumpling dynamics and the evolution of damage networks"

Shmuel Rubinstein, Harvard University

The simple process of crumpling a sheet of paper with our hands results in a complex network of interconnected permanent creases of many sizes and orientations. Sheet preferentially bends along these creases,…

Astro Seminar: "The Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS)"

David Chuss (Villanova)

The LCDM model of cosmology has been successful in describing the universe’s energy content and evolution with six parameters; however, the observed geometric flatness of the universe, its near homogeneity, and the…

Math-Bio seminar: "Assessing the relationship of ancient samples to modern populations and to each other"

Joshua Schraiber, Temple University

When ancient samples are sequenced, one of the first questions asked is how those samples relate to modern populations and to each other. Commonly, this is assessed using methods such as Structure or Admixture,…

Math-Bio seminar: "Bayesian inference of evolutionary divergence with genomic data under diverse demographic models"

Yujin Chung, Temple University

In the study of diverging populations and species, a common goal is to disentangle the conflicting signals of prolonged genetic drift (elevating divergence) and gene exchange (removing it). In this talk, I present a…
