Panelsamtale med dyktige oversettere som formidler slavisk litteratur til et norsk publikum.
Department seminar. Sophie Cottet is a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Stavanger, a CESifo Affiliate and a research affiliate at the Institut des Politiques Publiques. She will present the paper "Payroll Tax Reductions for Minimum Wage Workers: Relative Labor Cost or Cash Windfall Effects?".
Does gender make a difference in translations of ancient texts by women? The question is raised in the open lecture by Teaching Associate Professor Mette Christiansen, University of Copenhagen. She visits STK 8th of April.
Hélène Ruffieux is a Senior Research Fellow at the MRC Biostatistics Unit, University of Cambridge. She holds a PhD in Mathematics from EPFL, Switzerland. Her research interests broadly lie in the development of Bayesian methods and their application to open problems in biomedicine, with a focus on scalable hierarchical modelling approaches for variable selection, latent structure discovery and network estimation, in high-dimensional or temporal data settings.
In this lecture, Professor Henning Kl?ter will discuss visible language in official and unofficial use in Taiwan. While the former reflects more standard language norms, the latter is more varied and playful.
Department seminar. Sebastián Otero is an Assistant Professor of Economics at Columbia University, and a Research Fellow at the Institute of Labor Economics (IZA). He will present the paper "The Effects of Widespread Online Education on Market Structure and Enrollment" (written with Nano Barahoba, Cauê Dobbin and Joaquín Fuenzalida).
It is time for our monthly mingle meeting. Students and employees at the institute will meet up for informal chat.

In this lecture Dr. Scott Pacey will shine the light on the Taiwanese Buddhist movement Tzu Chi, its rise, activities and presence on the global stage.
In this lecture, Seth Brodsky (University of Chicago) will discuss what happens when we question standard psychoanalytic accounts of the "silence of the drives" and instead see it as a point of departure for a new theory of music.

Uneven solid surfaces are ubiquitous in Nature and can significantly impact fluid flow over them. In this presentation I will discuss two different configurations were the wall unevenness govern fluid transport.
First, I will consider wet ceilings. When liquid is coated on an upside-down surface, it destabilizes to form pendant drops surrounded by a thin film of liquid. I will show that these pendant drops ‘feel’ surface defects even though they have no contact line. The defects induce a gravito-capillary pinning-like force that can be harnessed to control the drop motion.
Second, I will consider hairy pipes. Many biological surfaces are covered with long and elastic filaments or ‘hairs’. I will show that when a fluidic channel is covered with hairs, the hydraulic resistance can become non-linear. This non-linearity is mediated by the hair flexibility and degree of channel obstruction and can be rationalized with a multi-scale model.
