pinoyscientists: Meet Glenn R. Laigo:1) What do you do? I am an Academics Manager for PHINMA Education Network. I help in policy making and implementation of network-wide programs. I received my PhD in Mathematics from Ateneo de Manila and taught college math at the same university before my current job. I could say I have tried the teaching and research side of the academe, and now I am in the administration side.2) Where do you work? PHINMA Education Network, where we currently manage four schools across the country: Araullo University in Cabanatuan, Cagayan de Oro College, University of Pangasinan in Dagupan, and University of Iloilo.3) Tell us about the photos? (Left:) Giving a talk at an academic conference for the 50th Anniversary of the Ateneo Mathematics Programs in 2011. (Right:) A side trip to Boracay on my way to my usual school trip in Iloilo.4) Anything else you want to share? I used to do research on Hyperbolic Geometry and Color Symmetry Theory, and have published a few scientific papers on these fields. This is one of the fields where you really see connections between math and art, nature, or even sociology. HI GLENN! If you guys are interested, here are some of the papers he’s put out: On the Subgroups of the Extended Hecke, Hecke and Picard Groups On Subgroups of Tetrahedron Groups On subgroups of hyperbolic tetrahedral Coxeter groups Colorings of hyperbolic plane crystallographic patterns

HI GLENN!

If you guys are interested, here are some of the papers he’s put out:

I sent this paper to JK Rowling explaining how the wizarding gene could be singular, autosomal, and dominant despite the protests of a bunch of fans who stopped learning genetics after Punnett squares.

mypocketshurt90:

Mrs. Rowling,

I read your statement that the wizarding gene is dominant. I have heard criticism that this does not explain muggle-borns, squibs, or the steady inheritance pattern of magical abilities; but I got your back. Magical ability could be explained by a single autosomal dominant gene if it is caused by an expansion of trinucleotide repeats with non-Mendelian ratios of inheritance.
