Industrial Problems Seminar: Research and Opportunities in the Mathematical Sciences at Oak Ridge National Laboratory

In collaboration with the Minnesota Center for Industrial Mathematics, the Industrial Problems Seminars are a forum for industrial researchers to offer a first-hand glimpse into industrial research. The seminars take place Fridays from 1:25 p.m. - 2:25 p.m.

This week's speaker, Juan Restrepo (Oak Ridge National Laboratory), will be giving a talk titled "Research and Opportunities in the Mathematical Sciences at Oak Ridge National Laboratory."

Registration is required to access the Zoom webinar.

Abstract

I will present a general overview of Oak Ridge National Laboratory research in mathematics and computing. A brief description of my own initiatives and research will be covered as well. I will also describe opportunities for students, postdocs, and professional mathematicians.
