SIAM Webinar on Smarter Life : Dilemma in choosing between Breath and Depth
by SIAM＠Purdue 26 Mar '21

26 Mar '21

Dear Students and Research Scholars, We, from SIAM@Purdue,are organizing a series of research talks on Neuro-inspired Technology and Quantum Future with AI and Society in the next 4 months. In a world where mental health and wellness is increasingly requiring to seek urgent attention to raise awareness for academic, government and industrial policy making for a safer, smarter, happier and economically stable world, the time has come to look deeper into different inter-connected research fields from unobvious angles with an international and culturally diverse perspective. Starting from this coming Monday, March 29, 2021 we are hosting a series of talks in tune with this theme. The Opening Talk will address issues in optimizing decision making while facing dilemma for choosing between Breadth And Depth of topics and how Computational Neuroscientists address such problems. Apart from usual Computer Science, AI, Management Science and Psychology folks researching in behavioral modelling and decision making, these talk is going to be enlightening for any student interested in understanding how to optimize their workflow . Therefore, if you are a researcher struggling to choose between your research depth and increasing breadth of knowledge, if you belong to an organization that is struggling to get things accomplished with satisfactory quality because of breadth of expertise of team members but their lack of depth and connectivity or sharing ( or vice versa) , this talk is for you to get a perspective on optimizing our decision-making processes and utilizing our resources with highest potential. So, come, join and get enlightened. Also, bring friends. Details of joining zoom webinar: Time: Mar 29, 2021 11:15 AM Indiana (East), Join Zoom Meeting https://purdue-edu.zoom.us/j/97303617076 Meeting ID: 973 0361 7076 One tap mobile +16465588656,,97303617076# US (New York) +13017158592,,97303617076# US (Washington DC) Dial by your location +1 646 558 8656 US (New York) +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC) +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago) +1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose) +1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma) +1 346 248 7799 US (Houston) Meeting ID: 973 0361 7076 Find your local number: https://purdue-edu.zoom.us/u/abDZ0Iys3D Previously in Purdue, SIAM organized conferences and many workshops.
