| CCSS Events Overview (April - May) |
| At the Centre for Complex Systems Studies (CCSS), we always believe in the added value of bringing different ideas and expertise together through various activities. We would like to welcome you at our centre and have scheduled the following events: |
|
| MasterClass on Numerical and Analytical Methods for Spatially-Extended Neurobiological Networks |
| CCSS Meeting #65: Neural General Circulation Model - differentiable atmospheric model for weather and climate predictions |
Time: 16:00-17:00, Tuesday 28 May (with dinner) Speaker (online): Dr. Janni Yuval (MIT) is a visiting scientist at Google Research working on the development of hybrid climate and weather models.
Content: In this talk, Janni will explore the effectiveness of a novel approach to atmospheric modeling suitable for both weather forecasting and climate modeling. This approach involves the development of a differentiable atmospheric model which for the first time combines machine learning techniques with governing equations in an end-to-end training.

| Young Complexity Researchers’ Lunch (YCRL) #18: Behind the scenes of cellular organization: analysing point patterns with spatial statistics including hidden random fields |
Time: 12:30-13:00, Tuesday 2 April (with Lunch)
Speaker(onsite): Kyriacos Nicolaou, Biodynamics and Biocomplexity (UU)
Content: Kyriacos will show an approach that was very successful in quantifying point patterns in ecology, epidemiology, and geo-science. It makes better use of spatial data compared to traditional statistical techniques used in cell biology and therefore can be more informative towards designing mechanistic hypotheses and models. |

Science Jam #53: Understanding and Responding to Complexity in Law and Governance
|
|
| Time: 12:00-13:00, Tuesday 23 April (with lunch) Speaker (onsite): Dr. Rakhyun Kim, Environmental Governance (UU)
Content: This talk aims to bring clarity to the debates in the study of complexity in law and governance by addressing fundamental questions such as the nature of complexity in legal and governance contexts, its relevance, methods for measuring complexity, and key policy implications. Rak will also explore limitations, future research directions, and the potential for interdisciplinary collaborations to advance our understanding of and responses to complexity in law and governance. |
