Dave Des Marais, Harvard, presents this lecture. From his website:

I study the diversity of life at many different scales. Like most of us, I am amazed by the visual diversity of plant life. But I am also fascinated by the diversity of genes, proteins, and other molecules which give rise to the beautiful plants that surround us. My research addresses how molecular processes shape organismal diversity, and how these processes evolve within and between species of plants.

Edward McAssey presents a seminar. Hosted by: John M. Burke. His research focus is plant evolutionary genetics and genomics. More specifically, studying the genetic basis of evolutionary divergence within the sunflower family (i.e., the Compositae or the Asteraceae). He also maintains an interest in the ecological and evolutionary impact of transgene escape from genetically modified crops into their wild relatives.

Every year, UGA Department of Mathematics and Math Club hold an annual High School Varsity Math Tournament on the UGA campus, to foster the mathematical education in Georgia and neighboring states. The tournament consists of three challenging rounds: ciphering, written and team collaboration.

This exhibit features work from UGA MFA art students and curated by art history graduate students. It is held in conjunction with Smithsonian Magazine's Annual Museum Day Live which is on September 26 , and the exhibition takes place September 26 - October 17, with a free, public reception on October 10th from 4 - 6 PM. Admission is free and all are welcome to support the museum, the school, and the artists. The exhibition will be located at the Madison Museum of Fine Arts in Madison, Georgia. (www.mmofa.org)
