Alongside a 'plurality of time', we are interested in the 'plurality of space'. Rather than transparency, it is the arrangement of different worlds face-to-face or side-by-side that creates this impression of density and richness in relationships.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nTo craft sustainable development, we believe that, alongside a body of fundamental knowledge, a spirit can be cultivated through tireless attempts, including failure, to develop a 'knowledge of the hand' capable of finding new forms of expression. The countless experiences that we have accumulated at MANSLAB over the past 15 years can undoubtedly be best recounted in the form of anecdotes. An anecdote is a historical detail or a characteristic of customs or character that becomes a short, entertaining story evoking emotions such as laughter or horror.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe students’ work that I am about to present illustrates certain tested, refined and proven principles, such as the indestructible link between ideas and the hand through the slow and joyful acquisition of knowledge; the economy of means to highlight the essential; errors and non-linearity as inspiring methods in the design process; and the cultivation of empirical, manual and physical knowledge that prioritises grasping sensory, supra-sensory and memory-based reality and is capable of creating new spaces. The launch of the book ANEKDOTA will take place at the same event.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u><strong>About the speaker:</strong></u><br>\r\nMarco Bakker is born in Harlingen, Netherlands, in 1960. He first earned a degree in Civil Engineering from HTS Leeuwarden, before continuing his studies in Architecture and Urban Planning at Delft University of Technology, including spending a year abroad at EPFL. Following four years of experimentation in architecture and photography, he founded the firm Bakker & Blanc Architects (BABL) with Alexandre Blanc in 1992. At the same time, he worked as an assistant to Prof. Vincent Mangeat and visiting professor Kaschka Knapkiewicz at EPFL. From 2003 to 2009, he taught architectural design and theory at the BFH in Burgdorf. Following four years as visiting professors together with Alexandre Blanc, they were appointed associate professors at the EPFL Institute of Architecture within the 'MANSLAB, Laboratory of Spatial Manufacturing' chair from 2013 to 2025.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nHe also served on the Arts and Architecture Commission of the Canton of Bern and was a member of the editorial board of Werk-Bauen & Wohnen. He chaired the jury for the Swiss Pavilion at the Venice Biennale on behalf of Pro Helvetia. Marco Bakker also regularly participates in various photographic and editorial projects related to art and architecture.<br>\r\n ", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-03-26T14:49:29", "last_modification_date": "2026-03-26T16:15:54", "link_label": "S'inscrire", "link_url": "http://shorturl.at/Zatib", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "SG 1138", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SG%201138", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Prof. Marco Bakker", "organizer": "IA - Gesualdo Casciana", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Sur inscription", "en_label": "Registration required" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120198/", "category": { "id": 8, "code": "LI", "fr_label": "Leçons inaugurales - Leçons d'honneur", "en_label": "Inaugural lectures - Honorary Lecture", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/4/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/145/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/27/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/32/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71457, "title": "lunch&LEARN: Bridging the gap between the math taught in first-year courses and the math used in life sciences research", "slug": "lunchlearn-bridging-the-gap-between-the-math-taugh", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/lunchlearn-bridging-the-gap-between-the-math-taugh", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32806/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32806/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32806/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-04-21", "end_date": "2026-04-21", "start_time": "12:15:00", "end_time": "13:00:00", "description": "<p>For more than two decades leading professional organizations have called for a reform of the mathematics education of biology and life sciences students. Reflecting the growing importance of mathematics in life sciences research, such reform should bridge the gap between the mathematics students learn and the mathematics used in research.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nIn this talk, <a href=\"https://teaching.ucla.edu/profile/steve-bennoun/\">Steve Bennoun</a>, UCLA, will present how the study of modeling and dynamical systems can be used to create a first-year course that introduces mathematical concepts used in life sciences research in a contextualized way.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nStudents first learn to write models for important biological systems such as hormone levels, epidemiological models, and predator-prey models.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nTaking a geometrical approach, students learn how to determine the long-term behaviors of models by studying phase plane trajectories and the stability of equilibrium points.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThis enables the study of the concept of “biological switch” or how a cell can start or stop the production of a protein. This is followed by the important notion of qualitative change in a biological systems, or bifurcation.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nStudents learn in particular about Hopf bifurcations or how a system can start or stop oscillating. The second part of the course moves somewhat away from the geometrical approach and focuses on how to determine the stability of equilibrium points using the linearization of a model, motivating the study of the necessary notions from linear algebra by studying discrete-time models.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThis talk will end with a discussion focusing on research by Sanders et al. (2021) suggesting that such a course supports students success and can reduce equity gaps.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n- - - - - - - - - - - - - <br>\r\n<br>\r\n<em><strong>lunch&LEARN</strong></em> sessions are intended for anyone who teaches at EPFL. <br>\r\nThis session is hybrid and can be attended in person or <a href=\"https://epfl.zoom.us/meeting/register/itgbPQceSnyGQK_-KbEttA\">followed via zoom</a>.<br>\r\nMost sessions are recorded and can be found on the <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLKZOhx3xKAdI81PA1jwBA_LHHfSjbdEUV\">Center LEARN's YouTube channel</a>.<br>\r\nTo get in touch with the team, to suggest a session, or to make inquiries, please send an email to <a href=\"mailto:[email protected]\">[email protected]</a></p>", "image_description": "lunch&LEARN flyer for Steven Bennoun's talk", "creation_date": "2026-03-26T09:31:18", "last_modification_date": "2026-03-31T10:04:59", "link_label": "Register/Access zoom", "link_url": "https://epfl.zoom.us/meeting/register/M8aJRgrLR6SAGywAeyUtfA", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "CM 1 517", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==CM%201%20517", "url_online_room": "https://epfl.zoom.us/meeting/register/M8aJRgrLR6SAGywAeyUtfA", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "<a href=\"https://teaching.ucla.edu/profile/steve-bennoun/\">Steve Bennoun</a>", "organizer": "<a href=\"https://learn.epfl.ch\">Center LEARN</a>, <a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/schools/sb/research/math/\">Institute of Mathematics – MATH</a>", "contact": "<a href=\"mailto:[email protected]\">[email protected]</a>", "is_internal": "True", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Sur inscription", "en_label": "Registration required" }, "keywords": "lunch&LEARN, Center LEARN, teaching, learning, first-year, mathematics", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120189/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences -
