Workshop / Seminar

In this training, we will cover effective ways to assess student learning in your online course space.

Striated muscle is intricately designed for efficient muscle contractions. The precise assembly of actin-based thin filaments is crucial for muscle structure and function.

An elephant eats 200 kg per day, or the equivalent of 200 grams every minute. How does an elephant feed so quickly? We present experiments with African elephants at the Atlanta Zoo and dissections of elephant trunks at the Smithsonian Institution.

This workshop is geared toward grad students! Join us to learn how to approach your mentor/supervisor relationships in a way that puts your needs first.

The Department of Physics and Astronomy invites all to a colloquium featuring Dr. Amy Reines, Department of Physics at Montana State University. Dr. Reines will present their talk, “Supermassive Black Holes in Dwarf Galaxies”.

Uranothorite (Th1-xUxSiO4) solid solution is of great interest because of its geological relevance and potential applications as a nuclear waste form for actinides.

Terrestrial animals coordinate the elastic properties of their limbs’ joints during locomotion by activating specific muscles at specific times.

Supported by the VICEROY initiative of the Department of Defense, the CySER Institute is a consortium of five institutions in the Northwest led by WSU with the University of Idaho, Montana State University, Columbia Basin College, and Central Washington University as partners.

Self-organization and assembly processes are crucial steps in the making of a wide range of materials and, in turn, have a great impact on their performance. For instance, the crystal structure, or polymorph, that forms during nucleation often dictates the bioavailability of pharmaceutical drugs, or the mechanical and catalytic properties of metal alloys and inorganic nanoparticles.

On Wednesday October 13, from 2-4 p.m. join representatives from the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art WSU (JSMA) and WSU’s Manuscripts, Archives, and Special Collections (MASC) for an introduction to MASC’s recently acquired tabletop letterpress.

Webinar with Dr. Vishal Murthy

Fall semester is flying and it’s time for a check-in. It’s a great time to reflect on your successes and work on goal-setting.

The Department of Physics and Astronomy invites all to a colloquium featuring Dr. Craig Cahillane, LIGO/CalTech. Dr. Cahillane will present their talk, “Controls and Inference for Current and Future Gravitational Wave Detectors”.

Seeing! A photon’s journey across space and time.

Porous materials can be used to help some of the most pressing issues such as carbon capture, energy storage, and the detection of environmental hazards.

With the growing concern over global climate change and increasing amounts of greenhouse gases contributing to said changes, alternative approaches to energy production for large scale power grid supply and small-scale transport vehicles have been studied in earnest. 

Protein arginine methylation is a post-translational modification catalyzed by the Protein Arginine Methyltransferase (PRMT) enzyme family.

Are you nervous about negotiating salary? Though most companies are willing to negotiate, most people never try.

The adaptive immune system consists of highly diverse B and T cells whose unique surface receptors enables them to mount specific responses against a multitude of pathogens.

Bimetallic metal nanoparticles are of broad interest due to their unique optical and catalytic properties which provide hybrid characteristics in comparison to monometallic counterparts.

Cybersecurity experimental publications should provide readers with a reliable report of the experimental methods, dataset(s) used and full analysis of the results to allow the readers to fully understand the capabilities and limitations of the experiment, and to compare the results to other similar tools or processes.

Spectroscopy is a powerful tool for interrogating the matter, but decoding the message delivered by the spectra is far from trivial. How do we convert the spectra into what the nuclei and electrons are doing?

In this talk, I will present some recent and ongoing work at the UW Ion Trap group. Our main focus is on quantum computing and quantum simulations. T

Compared to d-block transition metal alkyl and aryl complexes, U-alkyl and U-aryls have received significantly less attention and study.

This will be a hybrid CE event — join us in-person on campus or online via zoom.
