WHERE: Pearl Hall (Stanford & Central, across from Frontier) • Room P133, lower level
The New Mexico Academy of Science (NMAS) and its partners, the New Mexico Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (NM EPSCoR) and the University of New Mexico Center for Research Excellence in Science and Technology (UNM CREST), invite you to the 2015 Research Symposium! This is our 3rd year hosting this event, and we expect it to be even more popular this year. The event is open to the public, and will focus on water, energy, the environment, and more.
Celebrate New Mexico women in STEM on Saturday, August 1st at 3PM at the UNM Domenici Building, room 3010 to celebrate with 17 top New Mexican women who have been selected to highlight a 16 month calendar. The calendars will be distributed to classrooms throughout the state. It will serve a dual purpose, with each feature page including the woman's accomplishments and stories that can also be used as a tear-off promotional poster to encourage young women to make STEM choices for education and careers.
Light and technological materials work together to produce alternative energy and lighting. Join Dr. Kirk as he discusses research on how the new field of molecular spintronics impacts solar energy, organic lighting, and understanding molecular electronic systems at the nanoscale.
The STEM Advancement Program (STEMAP) engages students from New Mexico regional universities, community colleges and tribal colleges in the research funded by New Mexico EPSCoR. This summer, students will participate in a week of workshops at New Mexico Tech on energy topics and scientific research and spent eight weeks working with New Mexico EPSCoR-funded faculty and students on cutting edge research that is important to New Mexico. The summer program concludes with the STEMAP Student Research Conference on July 30 at which the students present their results.
This meeting is an opportunity for all project participants to showcase their work, continue to expand and deepen their collaborations, and discover new possibilities for cyberinfrastructure-enhanced research and education. Our External Advisory Board members, experts from around the nation, will be attending to hear about our progress and provide their expert advice on how to achieve our project goals.
This student workshop will provide an overview and hands-on training for sample preparation and analysis of algal biochemical composition. The workshop will use the standardized procedures developed at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory: http://www.nrel.gov/biomass/microalgal_procedures.html
Join us for an engaging hands-on software development workshop presented by the experts from Software Carpentry. You will accelrate from zero-to productive with the skills you will learn:
All hands on deck for the 2015 NM EPSCoR All Hands Meeting! This year the meeting will be held at New Mexico Tech's Joseph E. Fidel Center. Due to construction on campus, parking will be limited; click the title to see the map and the agenda.
Interdisciplinary Modeling: Water-Related Issues and Changing Climate is a graduate-level course (GEOS 697) offered this summer for 3 transferable graduate credits.
