We will have ASHBi Seminar with Dr. Adriana Dawes from the Ohio State University as a lecturer.

Dr. Adriana Dawes is a Professor at the Ohio State University, with a joint appointment in the Department of Mathematics and the Department of Molecular Genetics. Prof. Dawes' research tightly weaves experimental and theoretical approaches to better understand how biochemical, mechanical and geometric cellular features interact and regulate each other during development to give rise to a functional organism. Prof. Dawes is the recipient of an NSF CAREER award, and has also been funded by NIH and private foundations including the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation. She will talk about recent work that aims to provide a rigorous mathematical framework to quantify approximate symmetries found in natural systems.

If you have any interest in the topic, you are welcome to attend this seminar.
