CSC NASA Hackathon Talk: My Science Spectrum: Creating an Eclectic Academic Career and Broadening Inclusivity

The Barnard CSC is participating remotely in the universal NASA Space Apps Challenge, and our NASA-inspired hackathon takes place this weekend! The talks and workshops are open to all. See the below description for our first public event.

Dr. Emily Rice, Associate Professor of Astrophysics at CUNY, shares her path to science and academia through a variety of projects she has been involved in along the way to becoming tenured faculty at the City University of New York, starting with astrophysics research on brown dwarfs to planetarium shows, parody music videos, media appearances, an concept-oriented lab manual, Astronomy on Tap public outreach events, and STARtorialist science fashion blog and shop. The implicit mission that connects these eclectic projects is to expand support for, participation in, and even the definition of science.

This workshop is planned to take place in-person only (Milstein 516).

​​​​​​We look forward to seeing you there!
