IMSP Hosts Several Public Lectures |
The public lecture by Dr. Amador C. Muriel titled "Folding Water - The Search for a Quantum Theory of Turbulence" will be held today, Thursday, 1:30 p.m. at the PSLH-B. This is the third of a series of public lectures this semester on physics and physics education, sponsored by the Institute of Mathematical Sciences and Physics. We are very honoured to have hosted these lectures as we attempt to strengthen the research capability of the Institute, through visiting professorships, lectures by eminent scientists and mathematicians, research discussions and collaborations, and others, in order for us to give meaning and significance to our identity as a National Center of Excellence in the Basic Sciences.

Folding Water - The Search for a Quantum Theory of Turbulence Lecture |
| This is an invitation to the public lecture by Dr. Amador C. Muriel, a theoretical physics expert, entitled "Folding Water - The Search for a Quantum Theory of Turbulence" on Wednesday, August 5, 2:00 pm at the Physical Sciences Lecture Hall B. This is also the title of his newly published book that he co-wrote with Ninotchka Rosca, a well-known Filipino author and journalist. Sponsored by IMSP-CAS, the lecture will be a popular talk, a "scientific autobiography", that focuses on the human and personal side of creating and writing about a new theory. The event also serves to launch the book here in UPLB which was officially launched last July 8, 2009 at the Manila Hotel. In Dr. Muriel's own words, the book "can become an inspiration for Filipino students and dreamers who wish to to do science." Dr. Muriel, a co-founder of a new field of physics called Quantum Turbulence, holds a PhD degree in Physics from the State University of New York at Stony Brook. He is currently a visiting professor of Max Planck Institute of Physics of Complex Systems, Germany and the National Institute of Physics in UP Diliman. A corresponding member of the National Academy of Science and Technology, Dr. Muriel is in the country to continue his NIP-based research initiatives in Theoretical Physics under the Balik-Scientist Program of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST). |
