Abstract: More than likely, the first job you land will not be exactly the one you imagined for yourself; at least it wasn’t for me. As I concluded my time at UK, I had a tenure track offer from a regional public university while still in the running for a teaching postdoc at a liberal arts college. I had always imagined myself at a small liberal arts college similar to where I attended undergrad but the uncertainty of whether I would be offered the postdoc and even if so, how a subsequent job search would unfold, led me to accept the tenure track position at a type of school I had never considered. In this talk, I will share with you some of the choices I made once at Bloomsburg University to transform my first faculty job, one originally full of uncertainty, into a rewarding career and permanent decision.

Are you interested in publicly-engaged scholarship and working with local communities? Please join us for a panel featuring scholars from a variety of disciplines to learn more about their work and suggested best practices. The workshop will acquaint you with a broad array of resources and conversations on the topic of publicly-engaged scholarship and answer any questions you may have.

How do Partial Differential Equations detect Geometry in Euclidean space?

In this talk we will present an area of analysis that is concerned with the relationship between differential operators, the properties of their solutions, and the geometry of the domain on which they are considered. The goal is to highlight how analytic properties of solutions to PDEs determine the geometry of the domain where they are considered. The tools used in this area come from analysis of partial differential equations, harmonic analysis and geometric measure theory.

A native of Colombia, Tatiana Toro received her Ph.D. in Mathematics from Stanford University in 1992. She is well known for her seminal work on the interplay between the geometry of the domains and regularity properties of solutions of elliptic partial differential equations. She was an invited speaker for the Analysis session at the ICM 2010 in Hyderabad, India, and delivered the first annual AMS Mirzakhani Lecture at the Joint Mathematical Meeting in Denver in January 2020. Her list of honors includes Fellow of AMS, Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship, Simons Foundation Fellowship, and Alfred Sloan Fellowship. She currently holds the Craig McKibben and Sarah Merner Professorship in Mathematics at University of Washington.
