2025 Summer Programming for Student Researchers at Wright Lab

Summer students, their advisors, and the Wright Lab community are all invited to gather together to kick off the 2025 Summer Student Research Program at Wright Lab with coffee, breakfast food, and casual interaction. A brief orientation for program participants will follow.

The EHS shop orientation is offered each semester and is required to be taken once by anyone who would like to gain access and make use of the research and teaching shops at Wright Lab. 

Participants of the Summer Student Research Program at Wright Lab are invited to a tour of the superconducting quantum devices laboratories at YQI.

This tour is open to students in the Summer Student Research Program at Wright Lab and new members of the Wright Lab and Yale Physics communities. Meet at the front entrance for a ~1 hour overview tour of the lab facilities and research program.

This session will provide an opportunity for students in the Summer Student Research Program at Wright Lab to get assistance from the YCRC Research Support team with programming and HPC related questions specific to their research projects.

This is a brief presentation with Q&A, intended for participants in the Summer Student Research Program at Wright Lab, about how about to responsibly conduct research and use Artificial Intelligence.

Students in the Summer Student Research Program at Wright Lab are invited to join a guided walking tour of Yale University, starting from the Yale Visitor Center.

Join YQI and the International Festival of Arts and Ideas for an unforgettable experience as we delve into the captivating world of Artist Serena Scapagnini, fascinated by the processes underlying memory. The event will commence with the U.S. Premiere of the documentary “Serena Scapagnini – The Space Beyond” (Lo Spazio Oltre), featuring an extended version that showcases her recent artistic residency at the Yale Quantum Institute. Following this screening, immerse yourself in an engaging discussion about art, memory, and quantum technology with Serena and her collaborators.

Join visual artist Serena Scapagnini and scientist Florian Carle for a walking tour of New Haven to discover Serena’s original artworks created during her residency at the Yale Quantum Institute. The stops include installations on the New Haven Green, at the Robert B Haas Family Arts Library, and at the Yale Quantum Institute. The artworks are site-specific, composed of copper plates encapsulated painted paper and copper wires, playing on different types of memory: from biological systems and synapses to quantum memory and information stored in qubits.

All participants of the Summer Student Research Program at Wright Lab are invited to an evening at LFOP, including a planetarium show and observing with telescopes, pending weather.

Learn how to recognize what makes a good résumé or CV, how to manage your online professional presence, and what tools you can use to help you make decisions about your grad school search. We’ll look at several faculty CVs, commonly-used professional profile websites, and library databases that can help you find information on departments, industries, companies, and more — whether you plan to go into academia, corporate, or nonprofit work.
 

All members of the Wright Lab community and participants and mentors of the Summer Student Research Program at Wright Lab are invited to a mid-summer pizza lunch.

Split between the Beinecke and Medical Historical Library, Yale has access to early editions of many milestones of achievement in physics. In this enrichment session, you will have the opportunity to see works with topics ranging from early materials science, astronomy and cosmology, physics, and mathematics, a total of 15 items.

Undergraduates in physics and astronomy are invited to learn about applying to graduate schools from Yale faculty and current graduate students.

“Science Communication” includes presentations about:

• Writing & publishing papers & abstracts
• Preparing for scientific conferences and presentations
• Communicating with the public about science

The event will conclude with a Q&A panel discussion.

Students in the Yale Pathways to Science Summer Scholars program will discover the invisible Universe at Wright Lab and interact with Wright Lab researchers with demonstrations and hands-on activities.

All students in the Summer Student Research program at Wright Lab are invited to workshop their presentation slides with WL postdocs, graduate students, and their peers. The workshop will last 1.5 to 2 hours.

Please join us to hear what our student researchers have been doing this summer.
