\n Carleton University\u2019s Chemistry Magic Show\n <\/dt>\n
\n \n\n

The Department of Chemistry\u2019s Outreach Office is back with its annual Chemistry Magic Show on Sunday, January 28, 2024! The event is free and open to the public, but seating is limited and registration is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Come see flames, explosions, amazing colour changes, things that glow in the dark, and so much more! Our goal for this event is to inspire, entertain and inform. We aim to wow you with these chemical demonstrations, highlight the underlying chemical and scientific principles behind them, and explain their applications and impacts on our everyday lives. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n <\/dd>\n <\/div>\n\n\n

\n SAVE THE DATE!\u00a0Data Day 10.0: The Next Decade for Data Science Tuesday, March 26, 2024, Level II, Richcraft Hall, Carleton University\n <\/dt>\n
\n \n\n

Data Day is back! We hope you can join us at this highly-anticipated annual conference that celebrates and explores the latest developments in data science and analytics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year marks a decade of Data Day events at Carleton University, so we\u2019ll be pulling out all the stops to make this year\u2019s event a memorable occasion for all attendees. Our theme, The Next Decade for Data Science<\/strong><\/em>, promises exciting discussions on the future of, well \u2013 everything data!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Data Day 10.0 will include presentations by academic and industry experts, a keynote and panel discussions, and a ton of opportunities for you to network with likeminded professionals. Graduate student research in data science will also be showcased during our annual Data Day poster competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, mark your calendars now and forward this e-mail to a fellow data science enthusiast. Registration will open in February, and we\u2019ll be sharing updates as they are available<\/p>\n\n\n <\/dd>\n <\/div>\n\n\n

\n Exploring Attosecond Science: Exclusive Colloquium with Paul Corkum
Tuesday, Jan. 16, 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. ET | 3380 Mackenzie Building or Zoom\n <\/dt>\n
\n \n\n

All are welcome to join Carleton\u2019s Department of Physics as it hosts Paul Corkum, NRC Chair in Attosecond Photonics, for a special event on Jan. 16, from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. Corkum will discuss the contributions of each winner of the 2023 Nobel Prize in Attosecond Science and introduce key attosecond ideas. He\u2019ll explore why the Nobel Committee might have chosen attosecond science for the 2023 Prize, where it could lead, and more. Attend in person at Mackenzie Building, Room 3380, or virtually via Zoom.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/dd>\n <\/div>\n\n\n

\n Science Caf\u00e9 presents Unveiling Women\u2019s Overlooked Contributions to Nuclear Science
Wednesday, Feb. 7, 2024 from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. ET | Ottawa Public Library, Sunnyside Campus\n <\/dt>\n

Did you know that the experiment leading to the discovery of fission was led by a female physicist? Were you aware that 30% of the staff involved in the Manhattan Project, the large-scale scientific endeavor leading to the atomic bomb, were women? Yet, the 2023 Oppenheimer movie features only 10% female cast members, with half unrelated to the project itself. Women in the Manhattan Project played pivotal roles beyond mere background figures. Explore their untold impact on the development of the atomic bomb. Join Dr. Bourgouin on Feb.7 to challenge these historical narratives. Event<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n <\/dd>\n <\/div>\n\n\n

\n 2023-24 Health Sciences Seminar Series featuring Dr. Raywat Deonandan

The World Health Organization identified transparency in communication as one of the three best practices for controlling a pandemic, learned in the wake of the SARS epidemic of 2003. But misinformation and disinformation complicated our public health response and exacerbated ideological divisions already present in society. In addition, basic innumeracy and a poor understanding of the nature of exponential growth impaired the ability of audiences to appreciate the gravity of disease forecasts. A rehabilitated approach to pandemic communication is needed, one that not only meets the traditional public health goals of disease control, but that is also hardened against the now likely presentation of targeted and well-resourced disinformation.
