Join us for the final event in the 2017-18 Bridges Lecture Series,<https://sju.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=32b8faf3b62cb8f35a23e2996&id=f47150e155&e=53084a9331> taking place at St. Jerome's University. Rediscover points of affinity among the academic disciplines of arts, science, and mathematics at "Recursion: the loops that make the world go round".

What are we? By what processes and patterns did we originate and how do these patterns compare to the processes of the world around us, digital and biological, societal and fictional? On Wednesday, March 21st, Professors Andrew Deman (English Language and Literature), Josh Neufeld (Microbiology), and Naomi Nishimura (Computer Science) will provide a presentation and interactive discussion on recursion as a building block within mathematics and computer science, within the evolution of life on Earth, and within the very language and literature by which our society has engaged with recursion as a concept.
