Warwick Institute of Engagement – Fellowships Update
New fellows of the Warwick Institute of Engagement have been announced! Physics is very well represented - congratulations to:
Ally Caldecote (Foundation Fellow)
Anne-Marie Broomhall (Foundation Fellow)
Aruni Fonseka (Associate Fellow)
Don Pollacco (Honorary Fellow)
Oksana Trushkevych (Associate Fellow)
Tishtrya Mehta (Associate Fellow).
They will work with the team (incl. Rachel Edwards, the Institute's Deputy Director) to deliver and promote high quality public engagement.
Videos of the workshop "Theoretical and Mathematical Physic in Paris, Singapore and Warwick" now online
Video of Day 1, Video of Day 2
Theoretical and mathematical physicists at Cergy, Singapore and Warwick have many common research interests, for example mathematical and computational methods, artificial intelligence, quantum physics in all its manifestations, etc., and potential for future projects for collaboration. In order to communicate these better to each other, we met virtually for a 2-half-day workshop in July 2020 with selected presentations.
Researchers were free to present in-progress projects, talk about completed papers or give overview talks of their research interest. Similarly, PhD and MSc level students were encouraged to present their work, either as a talk or as a virtual poster.
Have a look at the vidoes to see if some of the work would be of interest to you and feel free to contact colleagues in Cergy, Singapore and of course also at Warwick.
COVID-19 Return to Campus
Physics is following all university guidance to ensure our activities can restart and continue to operate safely.
Staff and PhD students are reminded that they must not come to campus if they are displaying any symptoms of Covid-19.
Please read the guidance and complete the checklist before returning to campus.
Sandra Chapman awarded Ed Lorenz Lecture at the 2020 Fall AGU Meeting
Professor Sandra Chapman (CFSA) awarded the 2020 Ed Lorenz Lecture for the Fall Meeting of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) – which will be one of the world’s largest virtual scientific conferences [1-17 December 2020]. The Ed Lorenz Lecture is given on topics in non-linear physics across all for space and geophysics. Lecture will explore how advances in fundamental physics can help quantify space weather risk.
