The Institute for Basic Science (IBS) is launching its 2015 edition of the Symposium on three separate research areas from July 2nd to 15th. The Symposium provides a unique stage for leading scholars in basic science to share their research outcomes and the latest trends in basic science research. IBS will also seek to use this opportunity to take advantage of having the world’s leading scientific brains in one place to recruit IBS directors to advance IBS as a global hub for science research. This year’s Symposium will explore three separate research areas, all to be held on different days and in different venues. The Symposium begins on July 2nd where the field of Mathematics will take center stage at Seoul National University. On July 13th, Physics will be introduced and discussed at Yonsei University. The Symposium will conclude on July 15th at The Palace Hotel Seoul where current thoughts on Earth Science will be exchanged. Prominent researchers in each research area will serve as the chair and 21 domestic and foreign experts will lend their knowledge to the event. The Symposium in Mathematics will be held at 2 p.m., Thursday, July 2 at the Mok-am Hall (Building No. 501), College of Natural Sciences, Seoul National University. Kim Dohan, a professor at the Department of Mathematical Sciences, Seoul National University, will serve as the chair, and five speakers including Yu Shih-Hsien, a professor at National University of Singapore, will present on “Partial Differential Equations”. The Symposium in Physics will be held at 10 a.m., Monday, July 13 at Chang Ki-Won International Conference Hall, Yonsei-Samsung Library, Yonsei University. Harvard University Professor Kim Philip, a pioneer in graphene research, will serve as the chair, and six speakers including Jeremy Levy, a distinguished professor at University of Pittsburgh, will present on “Imaging and Manipulation of Emergent Phenomena in Nanostructures”. The Symposium in Earth Science will be held under the overarching theme of “Challenges in Earth Science” at 9 a.m., Wednesday, July 15 at the Grand Ballroom, The Palace Hotel Seoul. Richard Anthes, the president emeritus of the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research, will chair the morning session, and five speakers including Jochem Marotzke, a director at the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology, will present on “Climate Change”. Jos Lelieveld, a director at the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry will chair the afternoon session, and five speakers including Russel Dickerson, a professor at University of Maryland, will present on “Atmospheric Chemistry”.
