DESCRIPTION:Networking Lunch: The Pit Stop\, room next to IMC 004\, WMG: 
 12:30pm - 1pm Title: Title: Complex Droplet Dynamics on Nature-Inspired 
 Liquid Repellent Surfaces Abstract: Wetting of surfaces by liquids is co
 mmonly observed in everyday life and is of paramount importance for many
  natural and engineering processes. In many cases\, it is beneficial to 
 design surfaces that repel liquids: these surfaces can suppress icing an
 d surface fouling\, they reduce drag and friction\, and contaminants can
  be removed easily. Interestingly\, nature provides several conceptually
  distinct inspirations to design liquid repellent surfaces. Many natural
  surfaces such as lotus leaves and duck feathers are rough. The roughnes
 s amplifies the surface hydrophobicity leading to superhydrophobic prope
 rties with very large contact angles. In contrast\, on pitcher plants\, 
 a layer of liquid imbibes the surface corrugations\, providing a smooth 
 liquid surface that substantially reduces friction. In this talk\, I wil
 l discuss recent works by my group and our collaborators to understand c
 omplex droplet dynamics on structured\, nature-inspired liquid repellent
  surfaces. In particular\, I will focus on three phenomena. First\, I wi
 ll elucidate salient mechanisms of how particles can be captured and rem
 oved by liquid droplets\, which is key for designing self-cleaning surfa
 ces. Second\, I will discuss how droplet icing can be suppressed on supe
 rhydrophobic surfaces. Third\, I will discuss the possibility to develop
  patterned liquid surfaces and the distinctive features of droplet dynam
 ics on such surfaces\, including how they give rise to new wetting state
 s and contact line pinning mechanisms. Bio: Professor Halim Kusumaatmaja
  is the Jason Reese Chair of Multiscale Fluid Mechanics at the Universit
 y of Edinburgh and leads the Simulations of Soft Matter\, Biophysics & F
 luid Dynamics research group. His research lies at the interface of phys
 ics\, engineering\, applied mathematics\, chemistry\, and biology\, usin
 g theory and advanced computational simulations to understand complex fl
 uid and soft matter systems. Professor Kusumaatmaja's work spans multisc
 ale fluid mechanics\, soft matter physics\, and biophysics\, with partic
 ular interests in wetting phenomena\, liquid-repellent surfaces\, membra
 ne biophysics\, liquid-liquid phase separation\, microfluidics\, and com
 putational fluid dynamics. His group develops and applies simulation tec
 hniques\, including lattice Boltzmann methods\, to investigate the behav
 iour of complex materials and biological systems. Before joining the Uni
 versity of Edinburgh\, he held academic positions at Durham University a
 nd completed postdoctoral research at the Max Planck Institute of Colloi
 ds and Interfaces and the University of Cambridge. He obtained his PhD i
 n Theoretical Physics from the University of Oxford and is widely recogn
 ised for his contributions to computational fluid mechanics and soft mat
 ter science. Research interests: multiscale fluid mechanics\, soft matte
 r physics\, biophysics\, wetting and wettability\, liquid-repellent surf
 aces\, microfluidics\, biomolecular condensates\, membrane biophysics\,

DESCRIPTION:Networking Lunch: The Pit Stop\, room next to IMC 004\, from 
 12:30pm - 1pm. Title: Synchronization in chiral active fluids and coexis
 tence of topologically distinct phases Active matter has become a centra
 l paradigm in non-equilibrium statistical physics\, encompassing a range
  of systems from biology to engineering that are driven through local di
 ssipation and exhibit directed motion. These systems show a wide range o
 f collective phenomena such as swarms and motility-induced phase separat
 ion. I will introduce a class of idealized "dry" models in which self-pr
 opelled particles undergo persistent rotation. Single particles perform 
 a circle walk along a closed orbit perturbed by noise. I will then discu
 ss numerical and analytical results for two types of schematic orientati
 onal interactions in ensembles of many particles: alignment leading to s
 ynchronization and spontaneous traveling bands\, and chirality switching
  leading to the spatial coexistence of topologically distinct phases. Bi
 o: Professor Thomas Speck is Professor of Theoretical Physics and Head o
 f the Institute for Theoretical Physics IV at the University of Stuttgar
 t. His research explores the fundamental principles governing complex sy
 stems far from equilibrium\, focusing on how collective behaviour and se
 lf-organisation emerge in soft and active matter. At Stuttgart\, he lead
 s a research programme that combines analytical theory\, statistical phy
 sics\, and computational modelling to understand phenomena ranging from 
 molecular-scale processes to interacting colloidal systems. Professor Sp
 eck is internationally recognised for his contributions to statistical m
 echanics\, stochastic thermodynamics\, and active matter physics. His wo
 rk has helped shape the theoretical understanding of self-propelled part
 icles\, non-equilibrium phase transitions\, and the thermodynamics of dr
 iven systems. He has authored highly cited research on active Brownian p
 articles\, collective motion\, and fluctuation phenomena in soft matter\
 , with over 10\,000 citations to his work.

 ecision Abstract: This talk is divided into two parts. I will first intr
 oduce the field of “Imprecise Probabilistic Machine Learning” (IPML)\, f
 rom its inception to modern-day research and open problems\, including m
 otivations and clarifying examples. In the second part\, I will present 
 some recent results that I've derived at the interface of conformal pred
 iction and IPML. An open question in IPML is how to empirically derive a
  credal region (i.e.\, a closed and convex family of probabilities on th
 e output space) from the available data\, without any prior knowledge or
  assumption. In classification problems\, credal regions are a tool that
  is able to provide provable guarantees under realistic assumptions by c
 haracterizing the uncertainty about the distribution of the labels. I wi
 ll show that credal regions can be directly constructed using conformal 
 methods\; This allows to provide a novel extension of classical conforma
 l prediction to problems with ambiguous ground truth\, that is\, when th
 e exact labels for given inputs are not exactly known. The second part i
 s based on the following paper https://openreview.net/forum?id=L7sQ8CW2F
 Y Bio: Dr Michele Caprio is an Assistant Professor in the Department of 
 Computer Science at the University of Warwick and leads WarwIP\, Warwick
 's Imprecise Probability research group. His research focuses on uncerta
 inty quantification\, imprecise probabilities\, and machine learning\, d
 eveloping mathematical and computational methods for reasoning and decis
 ion-making under uncertainty. Through WarwIP\, he works on advancing the
  theoretical foundations and practical applications of imprecise probabi
 lity\, with interests spanning statistics\, artificial intelligence\, an
 d data-driven modelling. His group's work aims to build more robust and 
 reliable methods for analysing complex systems when information is incom
 plete or uncertain. Research interests: imprecise probability\, uncertai
 nty quantification\, machine learning\, statistical inference\, probabil
 istic modelling\, and reliable

 itle: Working with GenAI: Practices\, motivations\, and ethics Abstract:
  TBC Bio: Dr Marianna Patrick is a Research Fellow in the School of Educ
 ation\, Learning and Communication Sciences at the University of Warwick
 . A sociolinguist with a strong interdisciplinary focus\, her research e
 xplores how language shapes identity\, belonging\, and social interactio
 n across diverse contexts. Her current work investigates the adoption of
  generative AI in higher education\, examining how students and academic
 s navigate questions of ethics\, authorship\, collaboration\, and profes
 sional identity. Funded by the Leverhulme Trust\, this research is condu
 cted in collaboration with the University of Warwick\, the University of
  Edinburgh\, and Sophia University in Tokyo. In addition to her work on 
 AI and higher education\, Marianna's research spans inclusion in sport\,
  intercultural communication\, migration\, and discourse analysis. She h
 as published on topics including leadership in sport\, gender and intern
 ational mobility\, research ethics\, and philanthropy\, and is actively 
 involved in teaching and interdisciplinary research initiatives across W
 arwick.
