1.5.4 Dr. Maria Masoliver - Complex systems, more than a sum of their parts

Often, systems cannot easily be described by their parts or the sum of their parts — an everyday example is the brain. How do we study these systems? And how do physicists contribute to this work? Dr. Maria Masoliver is a postdoctoral scholar in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Calgary, specializing in complexity science and computational neuroscience. In this video Maria chats with Ea, an undergraduate student in math and physics, about her path into neuroscience research via physics and the wonders of interdisciplinary work. Mentor: Dr. Maria Masoliver, post-doctoral researcher in complexity science and computational neuroscience. Host: Ea, University of Calgary Math and Physics Alumnus. Produced and edited by: Dr. Davor Curic, University of Calgary The PAM Talks gratefully acknowledges support from the University of Calgary Graduate Student Association Quality Money grant program.
