Greetings science communication enthusiasts and advocates,

You are receiving this email because you have at one point been in touch with me regarding collaborations with OMSI and/or have expressed interest in our Science Communication Fellowship program (also see attached flyer).

Application Deadline & Summer Workshop Schedule
I wanted to let you know that applications for our Summer Science Communication Fellowship cohort aredue by May 11. The workshop dates for this round are:
Workshop 1: Tuesday, June 9, 3-6pm
Workshop 2: Tuesday, July 14, 3-6pm
Workshop 3: Tuesday, August 4, 3-6pm

Application Process & Scholarship Information
We have limited scholarship funding available, and encourage those seeking funding to apply. An online application (including the scholarship application) and further information about the Fellowship program can be found on OMSI’s website at https://www.omsi.edu/science-communication-fellowship. This page will be updated with application information and deadlines for future cohorts. We expect to run Fellowship cohorts 2-3 times per year.

Special Genomics Fellowship Scholarships
For this summer cohort, we will have special scholarship funding available for three PSU and OHSU genomics researchers. These Fellows will participate in special Meet a Scientist programs during Fall 2015 to celebrate the featured exhibit, Genome: Unlocking Life’s Code. If you are interested in this scholarship, please indicate your request to be considered for this funding in your scholarship application.

Please feel free to send this announcement to any colleagues who may have interest in the program. We also often work with researchers to incorporate this program into broader impact plans for NSF grant proposals. If you are interested in pursuing this option, please get in touch with me directly.

Please let me know if you have any questions about this program. I am happy to chat!

Best regards,

Lauren

The Center for Sustainable Materials Chemistry (CSMC) and Calapooia Brewery would like to invite you all to: Not your granny’s magnets! Radioactivity! Things that glow! Cool Chemistry from the depths of the Periodic Table. A Science Pub Presentation by May Nyman, an associate professor of chemistry at Oregon State University.

Description:
Forgotten at the bottom of the Periodic Table are the f-elements with the f-electrons. Not ‘what-the-f’; just ‘f’. Come find out why f-electrons in f-elements are so useful for your hybrid cars, wind energy, high-efficiency LED lightbulbs, catching counterfeiters, and so much more.

Bio:
May is an associate professor of chemistry at Oregon State University; where she and her research group study all types of metal-oxo clusters in water. May has been in the Pacific Northwest only 2.5 years; a former desert rat, and is dealing with the rain and loving the beer just fine, thank you. In the high New Mexico desert, May worked at Sandia National Laboratories for 14.5 years; but she knows no government secrets, so don’t bother asking.

Where: Calapooia Brewery, 140 Hill St NE, Albany OR
