SUMMARY:Statistics Seminar: Decoding Phytoplankton Responses to a Changing Ocean
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Francois Ribalet\, Research Associate Professor\, School of Oceanography\, University of Washington \nDescription: François Ribalet will present new observational technologies and computational approaches for studying phytoplankton responses to ocean warming. Using SeaFlow\, a custom-built automated flow cytometer deployed on over 100 research cruises\, his team has collected nearly 850 billion cell measurements across global oceans. Matrix population models applied to these data reveal how temperature affects phytoplankton division rates and biomass. The research shows that Prochlorococcus\, the ocean’s most abundant photosynthetic organism\, experiences sharp declines in growth above 28°C. Climate projections incorporating these metabolic constraints predict a 40-60% decrease in Prochlorococcus production in tropical regions by 2100\, with Synechococcus partially compensating through a 20-40% increase. These shifts between dominant phytoplankton groups will likely disrupt ocean food webs and carbon cycling\, raising questions about whether tropical ecosystems can adapt to warming oceans. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBio: François Ribalet is a research associate professor at the University of Washington studying phytoplankton and their role in ocean food webs and carbon cycling. He combines field observations with statistical models to understand how environmental changes affect the growth and community dynamics of these microscopic organisms. \nHosted by: Statistics Department

SUMMARY:AM Seminar: The Evolving Landscape of AI for Science and Engineering: Bridging Simulation\, Experiment\, and Multi-scale Dynamics
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Aditi Krishnapriyan\, Assistant Professor\, UC Berkeley \nDescription: Recent advances in large-scale scientific datasets are creating new opportunities for machine learning (ML) methods to more effectively capture scientific phenomena with greater accuracy and reach. In this talk\, I will discuss how these advances are both shifting ML design paradigms and enabling new scientific inquiries. This includes investigations into understanding if neural networks can autonomously discover fundamental physical relationships from data\, and demonstrating how more flexible machine learning modeling design choices enable capturing physical dynamics across multiple scales. I will also explore how generative modeling approaches rooted in statistical physics can be applied to accelerate the sampling of dynamic pathways\, and as a framework to align and bridge the gap between simulated data and experimental observations. \nBio: Aditi Krishnapriyan is an Assistant Professor at UC Berkeley where she is part of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering\, Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences\, and Berkeley AI Research; as well as a faculty scientist in the Applied Mathematics division at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. She holds a PhD from Stanford University\, supported by the DOE Computational Science Graduate Fellowship\, was the Luis W. Alvarez Fellow in Computing Sciences at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory\, and is a recipient of the Department of Energy Early Career Award and RCSA Scialog. Her research focuses on developing physics-inspired machine learning methods that bridge machine learning with physical science applications to capture phenomena across multiple length and timescales. \nHosted by: Applied Mathematics
