The faculty of science at Lund University is hiring two assistant professors in computational science. You can select which institution such as biology, maths or physics you want to be employed at.

Computational science is broadly defined as research that applies and develops methods for advanced computation with the aim of addressing research problems in the natural sciences, engineering, or medicine. This may include, for example, the integration and development of models, as well as advanced computational and data‑analysis methods and software, including simulation, modelling, and data management.

So check it out and consider working with me in maths!

Interesting and insightful seminar today in Lund University, hosted by the Department of Critical animal studies.

The subject of the seminar was based on the new book by academic Chiara Stefanoni "The human and the meat". Here's a link for the book:

Description of the book:

"Over 85 billion animals are killed in slaughterhouses annually to sustain a profit-driven meat production system - devastating animals, workers, and the environment. How did we get here? How has capitalist society reshaped human-animal relations? Elaborating a novel materialist and intersectional framework, Chiara Stefanoni conceptualizes the social form of human-animal relations and its centrality within the interconnected structure of domination in capitalist societies, especially in relation to gender and class. Through a historical analysis of industrial slaughterhouses, the study reveals how the human/animal divide and meat-based diet are not timeless facts, but concrete social solutions crucial for the reproduction of capitalist society."

Många känner oro för klimatförändringar och annat som pågår i omvärlden. Men det finns konstruktiva sätt att hantera dina känslor – även om det är lätt att trampa fel. Marlis Wullenkord, forskare i miljöpsykologi, delar fyra strategier.

Lund University had an open call for guest professors last year, and the response has been way over expectations with an extremely high quality of applications. As a result, I am very happy that Yingda Chen from Virginia Tech will be a visiting professor at the Center for Mathematical Sciences for two years, two months each.

She is doing very interesting work on low rank methods for high order discretizations of PDEs for interesting applications, such as Nuclear Fusion. This summer should be good!
