16:00 - SEMINAR - Mathematics and Statistics Colloquium : Mathematics and the Noise Immunity of the Genetic Code More Information
Symmetry is one of the essential and most visible patterns that can be seen in nature. Starting from the left-right symmetry of the human body, all types of symmetry can be found in crystals, plants, animals and nature as a whole.

Similarly, principals of symmetry are also some of the (...)
