The fact that we use the word ‘parts’ (and like words such as components\, el ements\, and even ‘agents’) implies that nature may be broken into separat e pieces\, basic ‘building blocks’ that somehow are brought together to pr oduce coordinated behavior. The different forms that coordination takes an d how it emerges and changes are of great interest to many disciplines\, p articularly the social and behavioral sciences\, neuroscience\, biology an d physics. The science of coordination (Coordination Dynamics) seeks to un derstand how coordinated patterns of behavior form and change at many scal es and for multiple functions in living things. This talk will review some of the main concepts\, methods and tools of Coordination Dynamics along w ith recent developments of the theory that point to future research target s.\n\nWith a high-level panel of leaders in science\, technology\, on-the- ground action\, investment\, and policy including Co-Chairs Laurette Dubé and Shawn Brown\n\n\n\nAbout the speaker\n\nScott Kelso\, Ph.D. holds the Glenwood and Martha Creech Eminent Scholar Chair in Science at Florida Atl antic University (FAU) where he is also Professor of Psychology and Neuros cience\, Biological Sciences and Biomedical Sciences. Using a combination of brain imaging\, behavioral methods\, and computational modeling his res earch focuses on how people and brains are coordinated on multiple levels and for multiple functions\, from cells to cognition and social behavior. His approach to understanding coordination in living things is grounded in the physical concepts of self-organization and the mathematical tools of nonlinear dynamical systems\, a theoretical and empirical framework that h as ushered in the science of coordination\, Coordination Dynamics.\n\n\nAb out the series\n\nThe Precision Convergence series is launched to catalyze unique synergy between\, on the one hand\, novel partnerships across scie nces\, sectors and jurisdictions around targeted domains of real-world sol utions\, and on the other hand\, a next generation convergence of AI with advanced research computing and other data and digital architectures such as PSC’s Bridges-2\, and supporting data sharing frameworks such as HuBMAP \, informing in a real time as possible the design\, deployment and monito ring of solutions for adaptive real-world behavior and context.\n\nThe Pre cision Convergence Webinar Series is co-hosted by The 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ Centre for th e Convergence of Health and Economics (MCCHE) at 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ and The Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center\, a joint computational research center between Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh.\n DTSTART:20211214T160000Z DTEND:20211214T180000Z SUMMARY:Precision Convergence Webinar Series: December 14\, 2021 URL:/desautels/channels/event/precision-convergence-we binar-series-december-14-2021-334465 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
