Professor Dame Alison Etheridge from Oxford University, who is also the first President of the Academy for the Mathematical Sciences and former Chair of the REF mathematical sciences sub-panel, visited Mathematics at Surrey on March 7, 2025. She presented a colloquium talk titled "The forwards and backwards of population models," discussing a class of models suitable for modelling plant populations, which includes a novel explicit modelling of the juvenile phase and its implications for inferring data from genetics.

Tom Bridges visited the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences in New York on March 5, 2025, for research interaction with Yuri Latushkin. Their work focused on various research problems related to the Maslov index, Fredholm operators, and the stability of solitary waves. Additionally, Joel David Hamkins is scheduled to present a talk on modal model theory at the Panglobal Algebra and Logic Seminar at the University of Colorado Boulder on March 12, 2025, which will be available live on Zoom.

The International Conference of Numerical Analysis and Applied Mathematics (ICNAAM) 2025 features a session on "Mathematical modeling applied to epidemics and the spread of bioaerosols indoors." Organized by António F. Miguel and Murat Aydin, this session highlights the importance of mathematical modeling in predicting, assessing, and controlling disease outbreaks, with a focus on indoor viral bioaerosol transmission patterns. ICNAAM aims to gather leading scientists in numerical and applied mathematics to discuss original research.

The Causality in Statistics Education Award, established by Judea Pearl, is seeking nominations. This award acknowledges the growing importance of incorporating causal inference into undergraduate and lower-division graduate statistics courses. The award provides a $5,000 cash prize annually, and nominations are due by April 5th. Further details regarding selection criteria and nomination requirements can be found on the American Statistical Association's STATtr@k website.

In other news, the Carnival of Maths 237, which rounds up various mathematics blog posts, is now available online. A mathematics conference organized by DEA SCUOLA is scheduled for secondary school mathematics teachers which aims to enhance mathematics teaching through innovative strategies and the integration of AI. Musically, Day 30 of a practice series features bass drum exercises from Mark Guiliana's book, highlighting complex coordination challenges in alternating snare and bass drum strokes.
