Dear all, I am forwarding the message below on behalf of Bob Planqué about the other NWA ORC call that may be of interest to mathematicians. Sorry to be off-topic, but I thought it might be of sufficient interest. Best regards, Tim -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: NWA Orirgins route Date: Wed, 12 Mar 2025 14:50:52 +0000 From: Planque, R. (Bob) <r.planque(a)vu.nl> To: tim(a)timvanerven.nl <tim(a)timvanerven.nl> NWA-ORC call open for (mathematical) research on the relationship between life and planets. The Dutch Research Agenda (NWA) has opened a new call for consortia to apply, see https://www.nwo.nl/en/calls/dutch-research-agenda-research-along-routes-by-… Among the different routes within the NWA, I would like to draw your attention to the Origins of Life route, see originscenter.nl <http://originscenter.nl>. The OC tries to foster research and collaborations dedicated to the emergence and evolution of life, from outer space to here on Earth. It involves scientists ranging from astronomers, physicists, (bio)chemists, biologists, and also some mathematicians. The new call is broadly speaking on the relationship between (evolving) life and a changing planet. See section 7.4.12 of https://www.nwo.nl/sites/nwo/files/media-files/NWAORC2025_Call%20for%20Prop… for a more detailed description. In the first consortium, there are two projects in which mathematics plays a prominent role. I am co-supervising a PhD student, together with a physicist in Groningen, on a project involving differential equations, and Renee Hoekzema has a project in the field of Topological Data Analysis together with a researcher from Naturalis. We hope that more mathematicians will feel inspired to contribute to this field. The consortia are set up by a series of workshops by NWO. The first workshop for the Origins route is on April 14. To apply, visit https://www.nwo.nl/en/meetings/collaborative-workshops-nwa-orc-2025 If people have questions, feel free to contact me: r.planque(a)vu.nl Warm regards, Bob Planqué Dept of Mathematics, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam Dr Bob Planqué Associate Professor in Mathematical Biology Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam https://www.few.vu.nl/~rplanque/ https://www.xeno-canto.org/ https://www.origins-center.nl/ ———————————————————

Workshop on the NWA Theme Symmetry at the VU
by Christian Bick 10 Mar '25

10 Mar '25

Dear colleagues, we are organizing a workshop on the NWA Symmetries Theme at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam on *Wed March 19, 2025* in the afternoon. The exact location will be communicated in due time. We invite you to participate and kindly ask you to forward this e-mail to relevant contacts at your institution that may also be interested. The goal of this workshop is to bring physicists and mathematicians together whose research interests connect the themes in the NWA call on "Symmetries" that was just published: https://www.nwo.nl/en/researchprogrammes/dutch-research-agenda-nwa/research… Apart from the intrinsic scientific interest, the workshop also gives an opportunity to explore potential research connections already ahead of the formal "matchmaking" meetings. To register your interest in the workshop, please complete the registration form at https://forms.gle/q3cz4yRudRsPNJ3RA by *Wed March 12, 2025*, so that we have all necessary information in one place. We do have some slots for short presentations (approximation. 10min) to outline (i) your research and/or that of your institution, (ii) how this links to the NWA Symmetry call, (iii) what nonmathematicians you can link to. If you are interested in contributing such a presentation, please give a title and abstract in the registration form. We hope to see you at the VU! Best wishes, Chris on behalf of the organizers -- Christian Bick https://www.math.vu.nl/~bick/ Associate Professor Department of Mathematics Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam Co-Director Amsterdam Center for Dynamics and Computation https://www.amsterdam-dynamics.nl
