Abstract Power-to-liquid (PtL) technologies must be deployed at world-scale to sustainably produce energy-dense liquid fuels in the quantities needed to replace fossil fuels in hard-to-decarbonize industries. Legacy PtL pathways … 4 Jan 2023 11:00 to 12:00 Event Leonid Berlyand Fundamentals of Mathematical Modeling of Active Matter. Examples Guest lecturer 21 Feb 2023 16:30 to 17:30 Event Anne Atlan Protecting nature or protecting animals ? Cat management at the crossroads of environmental ethics Seminar Abstract Environmental protection and animal welfare are closely related when it comes to native wildlife, but they clash when it comes to managing introduced predators that pose a threat to local species. The objective of protecting biodiversity, which … 27 Mar 2023 11:00 to 12:00 Event Virginie Courtier-Orgogozo Moving beyond the phylogenetic approach Lecture Today, phylogenetic distances are often used as a universal objective criterion. In some cases, however, other ways of classifying living organisms may be more appropriate.
