Ted Sampieri discusses how to prepare for and deliver an effective presentation. Hosted by Brookhaven Lab's Association of Students & Postdocs.
Magellan's Jude Treder-Wolff speaks on methods for achieving happiness and fulfillment in life. Part of the Lab's Employee Assistance Program noontime talk series.
On November 16, 2012, BNL hosted the 2012 Long Island Natural History Conference. As part of the conference, Matt Sclafani gives an interesting talk on the horseshoe crab its importance to medical research as well as it's key role as a food source to migrating shore birds.
On November 16, 2012, BNL hosted the 2012 Long Island Natural History Conference. As part of the conference, John Turner discusses the historical use of white cedar, the historic extent of where it was found, and its current status in isolated pockets of Long Island.
On November 16, 2012, BNL hosted the 2012 Long Island Natural History Conference. As part of the conference, Jeremy Feinberg discusses how the search for the missing southern leopard frog on Long Island resulted in the discovery of a newly described species of leopard frog (Anura: ranidae) based on genetics.
On November 16, 2012, BNL hosted the 2012 Long Island Natural History Conference. Participants engage in an open discussion about the days event and what future events should cover.
On Friday, October 19, 2012, the New York Section of the American Chemical Society (ACS) named Brookhaven Lab's Chemistry Building an Historic Chemical Landmark, in recognition of the synthesis of 18FDG, the first successful radiotracer for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. As part of the celebration, Louis Sokoloff, M.D., of the Laboratory of Cerebral Metabolism, National Institute of Mental Health, recorded a talk titled, "Development of the 18FDG Method: A Serendipitous Journey from Bench to Bedside."
On Friday, October 19, 2012, the New York Section of the American Chemical Society (ACS) named Brookhaven Lab's Chemistry Building an Historic Chemical Landmark, in recognition of the synthesis of 18FDG, the first successful radiotracer for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. As part of the celebration, Joanna S. Fowler, Ph.D., Head of Radiotracer Development at Brookhaven National Laboratory, gave a talk titled, "Working Against Time: 18FDG and Chemistry."
On Friday, October 19, 2012, the New York Section of the American Chemical Society (ACS) named Brookhaven Lab's Chemistry Building an Historic Chemical Landmark, in recognition of the synthesis of 18FDG, the first successful radiotracer for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. As part of the celebration, Abass Alavi, M.D., Chief of the Division of Nuclear Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, gave a talk titled, "Unparalleled Contributions of FDG-PET to Medicine."
On Friday, October 19, 2012, the New York Section of the American Chemical Society (ACS) named Brookhaven Lab's Chemistry Building an Historic Chemical Landmark, in recognition of the synthesis of 18FDG, the first successful radiotracer for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. As part of the celebration, Mony J. DeLeon, Ed.D., from the Department of Psychiatry at New York University Medical Center, gave a talk titled, "Alzheimer's disease."
On Friday, October 19, 2012, the New York Section of the American Chemical Society (ACS) named Brookhaven Lab's Chemistry Building an Historic Chemical Landmark, in recognition of the synthesis of 18FDG, the first successful radiotracer for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. As part of the celebration, Nora D. Volkow, M.D., Director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse and a continuing collaborator on research at Brookhaven Lab, gave a talk titled, "FDG: Contribution to Our Understanding of Addiction."
Data collected during 2011 and 2012 at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Switzerland, the world's highest-energy proton collider, has culminated in the discovery of a new particle that is about 135 times heavier than a proton. But is it really the Higgs particle predicted by the theory that explains the origin of the mass of most elementary particles in the universe? The discovery and its possible identity is discussed by two Brookhaven Lab physicists, Sally Dawson and Howard Gordon, with deep roots in the hunt for the Higgs.
DOE's Dr. Timothy Hallman, Associate Director of Science for Nuclear Physics, discusses the future of nuclear physics in the U.S.
Katherine Prestridge, leader of the Extreme Fluids team at Los Alamos National Laboratory, describes several types of fluid instabilities that are seen in everyday life that cause fluids to mix in space, the atmosphere, the ocean, and even in your coffee cup!
In the 475th Brookhaven Lecture Tom Watson discusses how perfluorocarbon tracer (PFT) technology can be viewed as a hammer looking for nails. The colorless, odorless and safe gases have a number of research uses, from modeling how airborne contaminants might move through urban canyons to help first responders plan their response to potential terrorist attacks and accidents to locating leaks in underground gas pipes.
Physicist Michiko Minty explains how bunches of particles traveling in opposite directions in each of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider’s (RHIC) two superconducting rings are guided, focused, and accelerated to nearly the speed of light and then made to collide. She describes how to ensure the highest possible collision rates by establishing head-on collisions between the two-foot-long bunches which, at the interaction points, are a width comparable to a human hair.
Daniel Nocera, a Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor whose recent research focuses on solar-powered fuels, gave a BSA Distinguished Lecture, titled “Harnessing Energy from the Sun for Six Billion People — One at a Time.”
Oceanographer Sylvia Earle discusses how oceanic changes that have occurred over the last half century threaten the existence of life on Earth.
