We host colloquia, seminars and a number of outreach events.


Unveiling the powerful transient jets launched by black holes

116 Weniger

Speaker: Lauren Rhodes, McGill University

Astrophysical jets are ubiquitously associated with accretion on all scales. They are energetic, collimated outflows that have been observed in association with the formation of individual stars to spanning the space between galaxies. Studying transient astrophysical jets teaches us about… Read more


A principled approach to the selection and organization of curriculum

WNGR 304

Speaker: Andy Dong, OSU Mechanical Engineering

The aim of this talk is to introduce a novel curriculum design process that addresses the core purpose of any curriculum: specifying the content to be transmitted and its relation to other content and for what purposes.


From Differentiation to Disease: Inferring Timing and Locality of DNA-Protein Binding Dynamics in Single Cells

116 Weniger

Speaker: Christopher Eddy, Oregon Health and Science University

Transcription factors (TFs) are master regulators of normal cellular processes such as differentiation and development, and their dysregulation in disease have made them appealing therapeutic targets. TF binding can be inferred from chromatin accessibility assays as depletions in local signal… Read more


Oral Preliminary Exam Workshop

WNGR 304

Speaker: Graduate Student Committee

GSC will be hosting an Oral Preliminary Exam Workshop. The Oral Preliminary Exam is the process you must go through in order to become a PhD candidate. We will be talking about what the preliminary exam is, where to find information and required paperwork, and the timeline of events leading up… Read more


In Totality: The story of how mankind learned to predict eclipses

116 Weniger

Speaker: Daniel Kennefick, University of Arkansas

When Einstein asked Astronomers to observe stars close to the Sun he set in motion one of the most famous and dramatic events in scientific history, the observations of the deflection of starlight by gravity at the total solar eclipse of May 29, 1919. But in a story full of wonder, one of the… Read more
