Human Foraging Behavior in External and Internal Search Tasks
Campus Activities
Abstract: When resources are distributed in patches animals must decide when to switch from a depleted patch. The optimal policy is given by the Marginal Value Theorem, which has successfully predicted animal behaviors, but as a mechanism it becomes problematic when each patch contains few discrete prey items. Biologists have proposed simple alternative decision mechanisms and calculated in which environments each works well. Here, we study the mechanisms that underlie human foraging behavior and test whether the strategies directing animals when to leave a food patch also underlie human decision-making when foraging for resources. We present results from two experiments, which differed in whether search was external (i.e. finding physical objects) or internal (i.e. retrieving information from memory), but whose environmental parameters were closely matched. In both tasks, subjects tended to use decision strategies that were appropriate to the type of resource distributions most commonly found in nature.

Science Cafe: Decision Making Under Risk and Uncertainty
Community Events
Decision making is using information to guide behavior among multiple possible courses of action—to move in some direction, to ingest something or not, or to favor one romantic partner over another. Such choices determine the way an organism makes its way in the world, and hence its degree of success in meeting the challenges of life.
Join Assistant Professor of Psychology, Andreas Wilke, Clarkson University, for an interdisciplinary exploration into judgment and decision-making research and learn why the decision strategies modern humans (unconsciously) use are a result of the interaction between their evolved psychology and the environment in which they live.

Campus Activities
Abstract: Nematodes are probably the most abundant, diverse, and destructive macroparasites of plants and animals. One of their victims is Drosophila neotestacea, a mushroom-feeding insect that is common across forests of Canada and the northern U.S. (including Potsdam). These flies are frequently parasitized by nematodes (Howardula aoronymphium), which cause sterility of parasitized females. However, D. neotestacea that carry Spiroplasma, a maternally transmitted bacterial symbiont, are resistant to the sterilizing effect of nematode parasitism. Several lines of evidence suggest that Spiroplasma is spreading in North American populations of D. neotestacea. Thus, D. neotestacea is adapting to nematode parasitism, not by the spread of favorable mutations within its nuclear genome, but by spread of a maternally transmitted endosymbiont. Our results show that defensive symbionts can have profound and rapid effects on their host populations. Such symbionts may be major players in the ecology of species intera…

Science Cafe: Tensors and the "Cocktail Party Problem"
Community Events
Imagine you are at a local cafe or in a cocktail party. After a few sips of your latte or martini, you may have already heard which of you neighbors are having an affair or which universities your babysitter has been accepted to while all this time you are enjoying Vivaldi's Four Seasons in the background. You were able to follow several discussions at the cafe in the presence of several sound sources around you. Humans can innately focus on one speaker at a time among a mixture of conversations in a noisy environment.
Modern technology tries to mimic this human behavior. This is often called the "cocktail party problem." Join Clarkson University Mathematics Professor Carmeliza Navasca to a lucid discussion of how mathematics and "tensor" computation achieve this, and other equally astonishing feats.

Science Cafe: What is Physics? A Personal Perspective
Community Events
Unlike "What is 2+3?" there is no easy answer to the question, "What is Physics?" Join Professor Royce K.P. Zia (Virginia Tech) on an amusing and insightful exploration of this question, based on his life-long career experience, first as a theoretical particle physicist, then as a researcher in statistical physics. "Though it has given us advanced technologies, physics has yet to understand `the magic all around us,'" says Professor Zia. Illustrating with equations such as 2+1=3, he will argue that physics is the easiest of sciences, and he will provide a bird's eye view of a piece of Nonequilibrium Statistical Mechanics, the challenging frontier that's been his main topic of interest during the last three decades.

Science Cafe: The CSI Effect: Television and Technology in the Courtroom
Community Events
Over the last 15 years television has been inundated with programs that focus on the science of solving crimes. Often those creating the programs misinterpret or embellish the actual state of forensic science, solving unsolvable problems within a matter of a few hours on the program. This has actually led to a measured change in the way prosecutors and defense attorneys select juries, as it is believed that seeing the “fake” science on television has changed jurors attitudes towards forensic evidence in actual cases. Jurors now want to see better scientific results than is actually realistically possible, because they have seen these good results on TV. This phenomenon is known as the “CSI Effect."
Join Clarkson University Mathematics Professor Aaron Luttman as he discusses the current state of research on the CSI Effect, and uses a particular example to demonstrate the state of the art in forensic imaging and how it is represented on television and in the courtroom.

Science Cafe: Exercise Myths
Community Events
Most of us would like to see a little less fat around our middle. But is it really possible to lose weight from just “problem areas” (also known as Spot Reduction)? Unfortunately, it’s not going to happen. We will look at the physiology behind popular exercise myths to see why you can be fit yet overweight, why “no pain, no gain” is not a recommended mantra, and why weight gain as we age does not necessarily have to be inevitable.
Join Clarkson University Physical Therapy Professor Deanna Errico and explore some of the more popular exercise myths and find out why they don’t add up to good health when examining the physiology of the body.
