Event Description
Emerging environmental problems are complex and multifaceted. Normally we have lots of data, but we must put the pieces together if we are going to find solutions. Mathematics provides a way to piece the puzzle together. This talk will show how mathematics has played a central role in answering questions ranging from polar bear survival to the impacts of forests pests under climate change.
Speaker: Mark Lewis, Kennedy Chair in Mathematical Biology
Café Scientifique is an initiative from UVic’s Faculty of Science that bridges the research-to-public gap with casual community lectures inspired by the early coffeehouses of 18th century France. These free evening cafés provide an opportunity to learn about exciting new discoveries in modern science and meet experts in the field. Each event begins with a 45 minute talk followed by a moderated question and answer session.
