Tuesday, Jan 30th, at 6:30pm in SLC120</h4><span style="font-size: medium;">
My identities include being a Latinx woman, mother and wife, member of the LGBTQ+ community, educator, advocate, and a mathematician. The journey to adding “mathematician” to my list of identities was not an easy one and it involved finding and creating mathematical spaces and communities in which I could be my authentic self. In this talk, I share how I have found and helped create welcoming mathematical spaces and the lessons I learned along the way that have helped me in comfortably saying “I am a mathematician!”</span><p></p>

<h2 style="text-align: center;">How to choose your own mathematical adventures</h2><h4 style="text-align: center;">
Wednesday, Jan 31, at Noon in SLC120</h4><span style="font-size: medium;">
What is mathematical research? How does a mathematician find problems to work on? How does one build mathematical collaborations? In this talk, I will share my journey to research mathematics, what it entails, how I have developed new research ideas, and how I have found my place within the mathematical community. Mathematical topics of discussion will include lattice point visibility, parking functions, and a connection between vector partition functions and juggling. No prior mathematical background on these topics is expected nor assumed as we will introduce all of the needed concepts from first principles. All that is needed is the willingness to wonder and ask the question: “what happens if…?”

<p>Dr. Pamela E. Harris is a Mexican-American mathematician and serves as Associate Professor of Mathematics at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. She received her B.S. from Marquette University, and M.S. and Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Dr. Pamela E. Harris's research is in algebraic combinatorics and she is the author of over 70 peer-reviewed research articles in internationally recognized journals. She is a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society and of the Association for Women in Mathematics. Dr. Harris is also an award winning mathematical educator, receiving the 2022 MAA Deborah and Franklin Tepper Haimo Award for Excellence in Mathematical Education, the 2020 recipient of the MAA Northeast Section Award for Distinguished College or University Teaching, the 2019 MAA Henry L.

is a wide-ranging field that at its core is attempting to quantify the
relationship between variations in DNA and observable traits/diseases. As the
majority of DNA is similar across individuals of common ancestry, the
differences in DNA are modeled using regression techniques. However, a complex
part of modeling these differences is the that the number of differences is
quite large. For example, there are an estimated 4 to 5 million SNPs in the
human genome. Further, some of these differences occur at an extremely low rate
so to investigate these rare differences sample sizes of up to 500k individuals
are obtained. With this p>>n problem and datasets in the petabytes,
techniques to perform causal inference and risk prediction must be specially
designed. As a doctoral student I developed methods to accurately perform
causal inference and as a postdoctoral fellow I am currently developing methods
to increase risk prediction accuracy using both common and rare differences. In
this talk, I will provide a high-level overview of these methods as well as a
background of how I became a statistical geneticist and a high-level overview
of statistical genetics.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><b style="text-align: left;"><span face=""Tahoma",sans-serif" style="font-size: 18pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin;">Wednesday, November 15<sup>th</sup></span></b><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 22pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"><br /></span></b></p><p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; text-autospace: none;"><b><span face=""Tahoma",sans-serif" style="font-size: 18pt;">12:00- 12:50 PM<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">

In this talk, I give my take on what baseball statistics are most important in contributing to a player’s WAR (Wins Above Replacement). I took basic and advanced statistics of MLB players over the past 20 years and used R code, Tableau visualizations, and statistical analysis to summarize the impact of these numbers.</span>

This talk will provide an overview of an internship I completed as a data science intern at Three Links Care Center. The various tasks completed with Human Resources and the Accounting departments will be discussed. This presentation will give the audience insight into the field of older adult services and a look at the challenges following the impact of the COVID – 19 pandemic.

This talk will discuss our capstone project that investigates predicting win percentage for the NSIC Conference. We investigated different regression strategies for modeling win percentage. We also investigated rankings within the conference using the Bradley Terry Model. This presentation will compare the rankings based on the Bradley Terry Model to the actual NSIC standings for the 2021 season.</span>

This talk will give an overview of the work I did this summer as part of the MASDER (Motivational Attitudes in Statistics and Data Science Education Research) project. The goal of the project is to develop new surveys for assessing attitudes towards statistics and data science education as well as a website for survey distribution and reporting. I will discuss my work with the Qualtrics API in R to improve our data extraction process for reports and how the project will benefit in the next stages.</span>
