Speaker: Naneh Apkarian Professor of Mathematics, Arizona State University, Arizona Title: Student Success in an Interactive STEM Ecosystem Abstract: This talk begins with a discussion of the multifaceted nature of “student success” in STEM, including externally recognized markers (e.g., grades) and internally defined indicators (e.g., enjoyment). Investigations of the factors which contribute to student success […]
Speaker: Andrew J. Bernoff, Professor of Mathematics, Harvey Mudd College Abstract: An outstanding challenge in mathematical biology is using laboratory and/or field observations to tune a model’s functional form and parameter values. These problems lie at the intersection of dynamical systems and data science. In this talk I will discuss an ongoing project developing models […]
