Job leads

Posted on September 7, 2004 By admin 6 Comments on Job leads

Just sent email to McGill dude inviting him to lunch later this week. I still haven't had a chance to see him since that last time. I think he's just uber-busy, especially as he's head of the biochem department and term has just recently begun (which means that the university bureaucracy is back in full swing). If this doesn't pan out, I think that'll be a fairly strong indication that things fell through :( Meh, we'll see.

Also sent email/CV to old boss at Ste-Justine. I'm not really optimistic about that one, especially since my current salary is way more than I used to make there, and they've been known to be stingy. Anyway, its a long shot, but it might prove interesting, especially since they're going to be working with IBM life sciences (which would be a very good thing as I ultimately want to work for these people :D)

heyho, heyho, it's back to work I go.

Today is a big day for math news.

Posted on September 7, 2004December 12, 2013 By admin 4 Comments on Today is a big day for math news.

Apparently, two Millenium problems from the Clay Mathematics Institute are close to being solved (think of it as the Nobel Math prize). Solving any of those problems brings with it worldwide math fame, and 1 million US$.

Tentative proofs for both the Riemann Hypothesis and the Pointcare conjecture have been brought forth. The problem is, these are so advanced that nobody can really understand them to disprove them :)
