Aloha!

Time for your (sort-of) weekly update on what is going on in our department. For now, there are three things going on this week:

1. ACMS Statistics Seminar
Our very own Hyungsuk Tak will be giving a talk today (Tuesday) at 3:30 PM today in room 154 in Hurley Hall (the building with the globe in it). There is a flyer for the event with the abstract for your convenience.

2. ACMS GSO Meeting (probably) Friday at Noon
Friday at noon (12 PM), we will have our first GSO meeting to discuss all the things. We will also be heading somewhere on campus for food afterwords, if you are interested.

3. Board Game Night (tentatively) Thursday September 13th
For now, there will be a board game night that Thursday evening. More details will be given at the meeting Friday.

As always, have a blessed week!

Title:
"Pattern Formation and Oscillatory Dynamics in a Coupled Bulk-Surface Reaction-Diffusion System"

Abstract:
In this talk, a class of coupled bulk-surface reaction-diffusion models is considered. Passive diffusion occurs in the interior bulk domain and on its boundary, whereas nonlinear reaction kinetics are restricted to the later one. For the circular bulk case, we present how to systematically derive normal forms near the onset of oscillatory and symmetry-breaking instabilities. The theory is illustrated using classical Schnakenberg and Brusselator reaction kinetics, and good agreement between numerical and analytical solutions is obtained in the weakly nonlinear regime. Since our analysis is motivated by applications in cell biology, the extension of it to the study of spatio-temporal protein oscillations will be broached.

This is a joint work with Michael Ward and Wayne Nagata, UBC.

Hi guys! I hope you all are having a great start of the semester! We should be having our first meeting soon (probably next Friday). After the meeting, we shall venture out to a place on campus and have lunch together (though everyone is responsible for their own food).

Have a bleesed week everyone!

Notre Dame Day has officially started! The ACMS Graduate Student Organization is participating in the Notre Dame Day campaign celebrated April 22-23 which awards $1.1 million to all campus groups via a massive online voting fundraiser. You have until 11:55pm today (Monday night) to donate!

Donate and vote for the ACMS Student Organization and SIAM Student Chapter at Notre Dame to help us earn a portion of the $1.1 Million being awarded to Notre Dame organizations! This year, a $10 donation will likely be matched to at least a $50-$60 impact! The LIVE Notre Dame Day broadcast will kick...

In honor of Women's Week here at Notre Dame, read the story of Gerty Cori, biochemist and nobel prize winner, who has this Berkeley supercomputer named after her.

The 5th most powerful supercomputer in the world is aptly named after a woman - renowned biochemist, Gerty Cori.
