Pint of Science: Peering into the unknown, Perception and misperception

From the elusive Higgs boson to the vast reaches of the cosmos, our universe holds deep mysteries. Discover how particle physics challenges the Standard Model, explore black holes, dark matter, and hidden dimensions, and uncover how starquakes let us peer inside stars. These talks take us to the frontiers of discovery, where the smallest and largest scales collide.

Pint of Science: Born to brand, wired to heal

Location: The Cannon, 135 Dwight St.

Description:

From the branching of neurons that powers our thoughts to the renewal of our skin, our bodies constantly grow, repair, and adapt. Explore how neural branching shapes brain function and connectivity, then uncover the secrets of skin healing—and why it can’t fully regenerate. Together, these talks reveal the dynamic processes that keep us wired, protected, and ever-evolving.

NPA Seminar: Mike Sas, Utrecht University

Talk Title: Exploring quark-gluon plasma temperatures using thermal photon and dilepton production

Abstract:

Thermal electromagnetic radiation is emitted all throughout the space-time evolution of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP), which we are able to create in heavy-ion collisions at CERN. The production rate of this radiation depends on the QGP temperature, which is a key parameter to understand the dynamics of the system. So far there is no high precision measurement of the QGP temperature at LHC energies.

Introduction to AI/ML on HPC clusters

Introduction to AI/ML on HPC Clusters
Thursday, May 8th, 9.30am-11.30am

This seminar provides a practical introduction to applying artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) techniques on Yale’s high-performance computing (HPC) clusters. Designed for beginners who are familiar with HPC or have taken/watched Intro-to-HPC, this session walks participants through setting up and running machine learning, neural networks, and large language models (LLMs) on the YCRC clusters.

This in person only session will be hosted at 17 Hillhouse Avenue, Room 101 (TEAL)

Science Communication: Presentation and panel on preparing papers, conferences, scientific talks, and outreach

“Science Communication” will include presentations providing helpful information and tips 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 to answer any questions you may have or cover any additional topics you are interested in.
