In her research, Sabina develops and applies operations research tools for shaping Health care policies, with emphasis on optimal resource allocation for controlling infectious diseases such as AIDS. She has collaborated with the United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS to develop a practical mathematical model that can be used by decision makers to allocate resources among HIV control programs. Her achievements have been acknowledged with the title „Romanian student of 2011 in North America", postgraduate level. On the TEDxBucharest stage, Sabina will lead an insightful conversation on how mathematical models can inform health policy, and the exciting insights we can gain from them, to improve our health policies and the lives of millions of people. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Mathematical Modeling of Pharmaceuticals:Predictive Design for Better Medicines-Ashlee Ford Versypt

Duration: 39:59
Updated: 21 Aug 2013

View more information on the DOE CSGF Program at http://www.krellinst.org/csgf Smart designs of drug molecules and pharmaceutical formulations can target treatments to specific tissues, reduce side effects, and improve patient quality of care. Computational models for evaluating pharmaceutical formulations can narrow the range of experiments needed to identify successful designs by predicting performance, thus reducing development time and driving down costs. Models coupled with sophisticated process control strategies allow for careful manufacturing monitoring to reduce materials and energy waste and adhere to quality standards. I will overview mathematical modeling efforts in several pharmaceutical domains and highlight work related to predicting drug release from controlled-release formulations that administer medicine over extended periods with a single dose. I will show how coupled, nonlinear partial differential equations can be used to capture the complex dynamic interactions between simultaneous chemical reactions and mass transfer. I will describe mathematical techniques that can reduce the system size from thousands of equations to just a few while still resolving biodegradation of the pharmaceutical formulation that strongly influences drug release dynamics. These techniques can help design improved controlled-release formulations.

"Alan Turing's Problem Was He Thought He Knew Pencils and Paper." Alan Turing was making his model on what a computer should do, based on what a mathematician does, write symbols using pencils on a piece of paper. Pencils and paper are physical objects subject to the laws of physics. Why did Alan Turing think that a single symbol, an integer, a whole number, be fundamental. We know from quantum mechanics they need not be. Ultimate reality is continuous, uncountable number of points at the base of physical reality. The numbers however arise from discrete quantum states, from the application of these continuous laws to this particular universe we find ourselves in. So mathematical reality is shown to be DERIVATIVE from ULTIMATE physical reality. Mathematics is a branch of PHYSICS and not vice-versa. #rocketscience #metaphysics #music #art #science #physics #technology #mathematics #medicine #time #travel #government #entertainment #writing #computerscience #computers #theoreticalphysics #anthropology #socialscience #history #philosophy #theology #media #internet #politics #finance #fashion #education #astrophysics #poetry

Duration: 2:33
Updated: 19 Nov 2013

In our behind-the-scenes interviews at the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions 2013, we sat down with Dr. Abe DeAnda, associate professor in the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery at NYU Langone Medical Center. Dr. DeAnda discusses a new grant from the National Institutes of Health that will support a collaboration between mathematicians at New York University and heart experts at NYU Langone Medical Center. Researchers will work to create a mathematical model of aortic disease. "We're hoping we will reach a point someday in the future where a single CT scan or MRI using this technology will allow your physician to give you a scientifically based prognosis and treatment options," Dr. DeAnda says.

Lindi M Wahl - Mathematical approaches to modeling extinction probabilities

Duration: 83:30
Updated: 02 Apr 2014

PROGRAM: School and Discussion Meeting on Population Genetics and Evolution PROGRAM LINK: http://www.icts.res.in/program/PGE2014 DATES: Saturday 15 Feb, 2014 - Monday 24 Feb, 2014 VENUE: Physics Auditorium, IISc, Bangalore Just as evolution is central to our understanding of biology, population genetics theory provides the basic framework to comprehend evolutionary processes. Population genetics theory allows quantitative predictions of evolutionary processes, integrating mathematical and statistical concepts with fundamental biological principles of genetic inheritance and processes such as mutation and selection. Population genetics theory is thus critical to understanding many pressing issues in biology, such as the evolution of antibiotic resistance in pathogens, the formation of new species and the emergence of cooperative and altruistic behaviors. This school aims to expose students and researchers from diverse backgrounds to the basics and the forefront of current research in population genetics. In addition to evolutionary biology students, we welcome students of mathematics, statistics, medicine, and physics who are interested in evolutionary theory. To equip students to think about issues in population genetics, we will first conduct a brief refresher course in mathematics, statistics, and basic biology including evolution and genetics. The remainder of the school will introduce and develop an understanding of population genetics theory and its applications to interesting phenomena such as the evolution of sex and recombination, phenotypic plasticity, polyploidy, and human diversification. The program will conclude with a short discussion meeting in which active researchers will discuss their recent work on aspects of population genetics theory.

Simon Singh - The Simpsons and Their Mathematical Secrets (Interview)

Duration: 4:25
Updated: 28 Jun 2014

You may have watched hundreds of episodes of The Simpsons (and its sister show Futurama) without ever realizing that cleverly embedded in many plots are subtle references to mathematics, ranging from well-known equations to cutting-edge theorems and conjectures. That they exist, Simon Singh reveals, underscores the brilliance of the shows' writers, many of whom have advanced degrees in mathematics in addition to their unparalleled sense of humor. While recounting memorable episodes such as "Bart the Genius" and "Homer3," Singh weaves in mathematical stories that explore everything from p to Mersenne primes, Euler's equation to the unsolved riddle of P v. NP; from perfect numbers to narcissistic numbers, infinity to even bigger infinities, and much more. Along the way, Singh meets members of The Simpsons' brilliant writing team—among them David X. Cohen, Al Jean, Jeff Westbrook, and Mike Reiss—whose love of arcane mathematics becomes clear as they reveal the stories behind the episodes. With wit and clarity, displaying a true fan's zeal, and replete with images from the shows, photographs of the writers, and diagrams and proofs, The Simpsons and Their Mathematical Secrets offers an entirely new insight into the most successful show in television history. http://www.amazon.com/The-Simpsons-Their-Mathematical-Secrets/dp/1620402777 Simon Lehna Singh, MBE (born 19 September 1964) is a British author who has specialised in writing about mathematical and scientific topics in an accessible manner. His written works include Fermat's Last Theorem (in the United States titled Fermat's Enigma: The Epic Quest to Solve the World's Greatest Mathematical Problem),The Code Book (about cryptography and its history), Big Bang (about the Big Bang theory and the origins of the universe), Trick or Treatment? Alternative Medicine on Trial[6] (about complementary and alternative medicine) and The Simpsons and Their Mathematical Secrets (about mathematical ideas and theorems hidden in episodes of The Simpsons and Futurama). Singh has also produced documentaries and works for television to accompany his books, is a trustee of NESTA, the National Museum of Science and Industry and co-founded the Undergraduate Ambassadors Scheme. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_Singh Subscribe to this Channel: http://youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=TheRationalFuture Science, Technology & the Future: http://scifuture.org Humanity+: http://humanityplus.org
