We are pleased to present our MPE Wednesday Seminar Series for term 1 of the Academic Year 2017/18. This series will be given by climate and weather scientists, industrial partners and mathematicians who will present an overview of their current research activity and how it’s shaping and contributing to tackle global challenges in oceans, weather and climate.
The inaugural lecture will be delivered by Prof Hans Engler from Department of Mathematics and Statistics, Georgetown University, on Wednesday, 11 October at Imperial College London.
