Join us for a talk from Prof. Monica Emelko, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, on "Critical Advances and Collaborative Opportunities in Water Science, Technology & Policy: One Perspective from Engineering".
The traditional university science curriculum was designed to train specialists in specific disciplines. However, in universities all over the world, science students are going into increasingly diverse careers and the current model does not fit their needs. Advances in technology also make certain modes of learning obsolete.
Presented by Joseph Bondy-Denomy, PhD
Assistant Professor
University of California, San Francisco
Dept. of Microbiology & Immunology
We are kicking off the biweekly biology semester series for fall term with the inimitable Dr. Clara Chan from the University of Delaware, with a talk this Friday titled "How microbes rust the Earth: Insights from field studies, culturing and ‘omics"
The leaves are turning vibrant colours, catching your eyes and making you ponder the mysterious ways of plants.
This week's seminar is a perfect fit, with Dr. Alizée Malnoë from Umeå University in Sweden presenting a seminar on "Molecular Players of Photoprotection in Plants".
