Rebuilding Research, #Education, and Innovation in #Ukraine – Ukrainian version
Proceedings of a Workshop - in Brief (2023). The Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 24, 2022 has resulted in devastation, including loss of life, massive internal and external migration, and the partial or complete destruction of facilities and infrastructure. This poses urgent challenges for Ukrainian science, education, and technology sectors.

Happy National Pollinator Week
Due to all the winter rains and an injury this spring, my pollinator garden is very lacking this year (mostly crab grass). At least my various milkweed plants are self-sustaining now, so are doing quite well.

Oh, race, a concept of days long gone,
Your use in science so wrong
Replace with something more tangible,
More accurate and more sensible
For it is only then, when terms are clear,
That science can finally persevere

Another week, another poster Illustrating the Impact of #Mathematics. This week, Revolutionizing Manufacturing highlighting how mathematics comes in at every point of the process, from initial design based on mathematical models, developments of new materials, optimization of chemical processes, process monitoring and control, and logistics of the distribution. Just to name a few things. 😉

As we recover from heavy rainfall in California, I'm reminded of the advances in numerical weather forecasting discussed in this #NationalAcademies poster on the Mathematics and Statistics of Weather Forecasting.

@TammyKolda I love these posters, and grabbed several from the #NASEM booth at JMM. The 'hero' one is my fave, and graces my office door now. Well done to the team that made this happen!
