BIOMS Seminar: Mathematical Medicine: Rational Guidance for Complex Problems by Sivabal Sivaloganathan, University of Waterloo
SPEAKER: Sivabal Sivaloganathan, University of Waterloo
ABSTRACT:
Problems and questions arising in Medicine and the Life are very complex,
often of unknown etiology. In this talk, I will give a high level view of
how prudent use of Occam’s razor (or the “law of parsimony”) can often
lead to significant insights and provide rational guidance for problems
arising in clinical medicine.
QUIGS Seminar: Representation Theory for Finite Groups (Symmetric Groups)
SPEAKERS: Comfort Mintah and Matthew Kazakov
BIOMS Seminar: Examining cancer screening adherence in Ontario using multistate transitional models, Rinku Sutradhar, University of Toronto
Understanding disparities among women in breast cancer screening adherence is of considerable interest, however prior work has been methodologically limited. Our work longitudinally examines adherence to screening, and determines factors associated with becoming adherent. The cohort consisted of 2, 537, 960 women age 50-74 from Ontario, Canada. Using age as the time scale, a relative rate multivariable regression was implemented under the 3-state transitional model to examine the association between covariates (all time-varying) and the rate of becoming adherent.
QUIGS Seminar: Numerical Ranges and Quantum Information Science
SPEAKER: Prof. Chi-Kwong Li
College of William and Mary
ABSTRACT: We describe some results and problems on generalized numerical ranges,
and their connections to quantum science.
