  <title><![CDATA[3rd Annual Southeast Center for Mathematics and Biology (SCMB) Symposium]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>Mark your calendars! Symposium to take place from 12 noon - 2:00 p.m. EST on December 7-10, 2020.</em><br />
<br />
It&#39;s Called <em>Interactional Expertise</em> &ndash; Ever Heard of It?</strong><br />
<br />
Until three years ago, neither had most of us at SCMB, but it turns out that this phrase epitomizes our approach to the cross-disciplinary training of junior researchers. With effective communication an ever more important skill in our virtual world, we&#39;ve decided to make Interactional Expertise (IE) the theme of our 3rd Annual Symposium.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
<strong>Connect with more people and research through IE!</strong></p>

<p>In our context, having IE means that you don&#39;t need to be an expert in both math and bio in order to work productively at the math-bio interface&mdash;you just need to be able to communicate effectively with someone whose research expertise complements your own!&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>We hope you will join us December 7 &ndash; 10 to hear about:</strong></p>

<ul>
	<li>the impact of IE in shaping the careers of senior math-bio researchers</li>
	<li>the value of developing IE from SCMB&#39;s junior researchers</li>
	<li>the importance of IE in early-career math-bio employment opportunities</li>
	<li>In an effort to combat &#39;zoom fatigue&#39; we will approach these topics through lively interviews with researchers who work at the interface of math and biology.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>

<p>Each of the first 3 days will spotlight one of these conversations, followed by a pair of short talks. The talks will highlight math-bio research frontiers and will be given by junior researchers from SCMB and the other 3 NSF-Simons MathBioSys research centers.<br />
<br />
<strong>Come support junior researchers and build math-bio community!</strong><br />
<br />
The final day will feature a plenary talk on &quot;Algebraic Systems Biology&quot; &nbsp;by Prof. Heather Harrington (Oxford), and an interactive poster session with spatial conferencing. &nbsp;All poster session presenters will be entered into a drawing for complementary registration at SCMB&#39;s 4th Annual Symposium (expected to be in-person in Feb 2022). We hope you will enhance this meeting by showcasing your work during the poster session!<br />
<br />
<strong>Join us for a lively exploration of the math-bio interface!</strong><br />
