2018 Global Survey of Mathematical, Computing, and Natural Scientists

——————————————————————————————————————–

Please consider contributing to the 2018 Global Survey of Mathematical, Computing, and Natural Scientists organized by the Gender Gap in Science –project.

 

You will find the survey at http://statisticalresearchcenter.org/global18.

 

The survey is part of an interdisciplinary collaboration of eleven partners, supported by the International Council for Science (ICSU), which aims to better understand the problems mathematical, computing, and natural science academics and practitioners are facing around the world.

 

One of the specific tasks for the project is to collect data across the world to inform policy makers from all countries, especially developing countries, about reducing the gap between men and women in mathematical, computing, and natural sciences.

 

The data are being collected by the non-profit Statistical Research Center of the American Institute of Physics. Responses to this survey are voluntary, and your individual information will be held in strict confidence.

PHYSICS DEPARTMENT COLLOQUIUM ON 18.05.2018 AT 14.15 IN E204 (note location!)

—————————————————————————————-
You are warmly invited to our final departmental colloquium of the academic year. Our speaker on Friday is visiting professor Mark Hindmarsh from the University of Sussex, who also spends a substantial fraction of his time here in Helsinki. Mark is an expert in numerical simulations studying the physics of the early universe. His talk, titled “Higgs Fizz in the Big Bang”, he will explain how the ‘fizzing’ Higgs boson can generate signals that could be seen by future gravitational wave detectors.

 

The talk will last 30 minutes, after which there will be a cocktail reception. Welcome!

 

For more information please visit: http://blogs.helsinki.fi/physics-colloquium/

 

The colloquium series will return in the Autumn with more speakers from near and far, speaking about a variety of topics of interest to physicists. If you have a visitor coming to Kumpula whom you think might make a good colloquium speaker, please contact the colloquium organisers. We’d also love to hear your feedback! You can get in touch via our web page or contact us directly. The organisers are: Minna Palmroth, Lucile Turc, Aleksi Vuorinen and David Weir.
