Title: Complex dynamics of excitable McKean-Vlasov dynamics and applications to Parkinson’s disease

Abstract: In this talk, I will present a few properties of McKean-Vlasov equations representing the dynamics of large networks of neurons. Neurons are typically described as excitable systems: each has a globally stable state corresponding to rest, but perturbations exceeding a threshold lead to transient large excursions away from the resting state. I will present here a combination of...

ORCiD (Open Researcher and Contributor ID) is a persistent digital identifier to resolve the researcher's name ambiguity problem. Researchers are required to provide their ORCiD iD when applying for a grant or submitting an article for publication. Learn more about creating an ORCiD iD at www.iam.uiowa.edu/planter, linking your ORCiD iD to the University of Iowa, and adding your publication records from data sources (Scopus, CrossRef, etc.) to your ORCiD. Led by Carol Hollier, sciences reference...

Title: Conditional Positive Definiteness and Complete Monotonicity in Subnormal Operator Theory

Join us for an out-of-this-world movie experience as we screen "The Martian" (2015) and explore the science behind the story. Is surviving on Mars really possible? Could you grow potatoes in Martian soil? How accurate are the physics, engineering, and geology portrayed on screen?

Enjoy expert commentary from professors in engineering, physics and astronomy, geology, and cinematic arts as they break down what’s fact and what’s fiction in this sci-fi classic. Bring your curiosity, questions, and...
