DESCRIPTION:by Dragan MašulovićAbstract\nIt has become obvious in recent
  development that the structural Ramsey property is a categorical property
 : it depends not only on the choice of objects\, but also on the choice of
  morphisms involved. In this talk we explicitly put the Ramsey property an
 d the dual Ramsey property in the context of categories of finite structur
 es and investigate the invariance of these properties under adjunctions an
 d categorical equivalence. We use elementary category theory to generalize
  some combinatorial results and using the machinery of very basic category
  theory provide new combinatorial statements (whose formulations do not re
 fer to category-theroretic notions).Bio\nDragan Mašulović is a full prof
 essor in the Department of Mathematics and Informatics\,Faculty of Science
 \, University of Novi Sad\, Serbia\, where he heads the chair of Theoretic
 al Foundations of Computer Science. He is a co-author of 50 research paper
 s on homomorphism-homogeneous structures\, the structure of endomorphisms 
 of homogeneous countable structures\, clone theory\, graph theory\, and co
 algebras. He is also interested in academic advancement of mathematically 
 gifted students as well as quality assurance in higher education. He recei
 ved his Ph.D.\, M.Sc. and B.Sc. from the University of Novi Sad. He was a 
 research and teaching fellow at Johannes Kepler University\, Linz and at D
 resden University of Technology.More information
