In a special preview of the alumni flagship publication, TRENT Magazine is presenting a feature audio interview with expert in disease modelling and mathematical edipemiology and immunology, and Trent alumna, Dr. Jane Heffernan. The conversation, which touches on such current hot-button issues as COVID variants and vaccination, proved so timely that the magazine worked with the Trent Voices podcast to release the interview in an online audio format. As one of Canada’s leading mathematicians and a director with the Centre for Disease Modelling at York University, Dr. Heffernan’s highly regarded research focuses on the spread and persistence of infectious diseases. As with many of her research colleagues across Canada and around the globe, her focus over the past year has been dedicated almost exclusively to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Heffernan is an associate professor in the York University Faculty of Science/Department of Mathematics & Statistics and York Research Chair (Tier II), Multi-Scale Methods for Evidence-based Health Policy. The June edition of TRENT Magazine will feature a bio and interview with Dr. Heffernan, as well as stories on the impact of the pandemic on the arts, and in-depth interview with Ghanian broadcaster, talk show host, actress and girls’ education advocate, Anita Erskine.

Professor Trevor Avery teaches and conducts fisheries research out of Acadia University in Nova Scotia. More recently he's teamed up with Jeff Wilson of the Striper Cup and Sean Simmons of Anglers Atlas to form a ground-breaking recreational fisheries research initiative called the Atlantic Anglers Challenge. The initiative rewards anglers to download and use the MyCatch app to track and report their angling pressure and success. Listen as professor Avery shares with Lawrence Gunther his rationale and expectations for the research that is now taking place across all four Atlantic provinces on this episode of Blue Fish Radio.Link here:Trevor Avery is an Associate Professor, Biology and Mathematics & Statistics, at Acadia University. The Atlantic Anglers Challenge is a multi-species, multi-season tournament and Covid-19 fundraiser. It uses MyCatch to record anglers catches including fish size, location, and time fishing. Anglers are introduced to Angler's Atlas, an online database for their fishing days, and the data is used by researchers to answer questions on fish biology and fisheries science. Fish biology questions might be where species are found, including discovery of invasive species, color patterns, and sizes. Fisheries science questions might include estimating relative catches based on effort fishing (known as catch-per-unit-effort) and size distribution. In all cases, a tournament designed partly with fish diversity in mind, such as all species and all sizes count, instead of just the largest or most fish provides much more data to researchers to investigate fish. Link below for more information about the research.

EP 113: Angela Lillis is the Insights Lead of the Clothing & Home division of Marks & Spencer. She formerly worked in marketing analytics for the BBC. She double majored in Mathematics & Statistics and Politics from Newcastle University.

In this episode, I speak with my friend and fellow podcaster Steven Menking about his podcast On the Objective. The mission behind it, how it was started, and how he stays motivated. Steven also throws down a unique challenge at the end so stick around. Steven Menking graduated from Williams College in 2010 with a B.A. in Mathematics & Statistics and a B.A. in Economics. His professional career began in New York City as an investment banking analyst in the technology group of Morgan Stanley. In 2012, Steven joined a proprietary trading desk as a short term equities trader. Steven accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior and was born again in 2014. One week later he was unemployed. After seeking God for direction he was called to be a teacher and began working as a private tutor in Manhattan. Since then he has worked with students from the age of 7 to the age of 56 on a wide variety of subjects. Steven’s tutoring specialties include test preparation, math, economics, philosophy, and writing. In 2014 Steven founded The Amateur Society, a discussion group that focuses on questions of philosophy, worldview, economics, geopolitics, science, current events, and any other topics participants bring to the table. The goal of The Amateur Society is to create an open environment where everyone can sharpen their cognitive tools in order to conduct truth-directed inquiry. The group meets weekly on Mondays at 8:00pm Eastern via Skype. Search for the Skype username amateursociety and send a contact request to join in!
