Are you a student interested in research, but unsure of which field? Willing to play a game of research roulette?
The SAC is excited to be launching The Physics Hour, a new lecture series featuring professors, researchers, and industry professionals in Canadian labs who want to share their work with students and physics enthusiasts. This virtual series will be hosted online every Tuesday at 6:30 pm EST (3:30 pm PST) over Zoom and will include a short Q&A so the audience can connect with speakers.
We are inviting experts across a wide range of fields including astrophysics, condensed matter physics, medical physics, and more! This is an excellent opportunity for undergraduate students to become familiar with a wide range of physics fields and ask questions directly to experts in the field about their research and how to succeed in this career path. The Physics Hour series includes special features which will spotlight Canadian professionals who have taken their physics and science expertise to industries such as science communications, software development, and beyond!
Our next seminars will feature:
* Dr. Lindsay Leblanc and her talk on “Exploring Quantum Technologies with Atoms” (Tuesday, August 2nd)
* Dr. Jess McIver and her talk on “Gravitational-wave Astrophysics: A New Frontier” (Tuesday, August 9th)
* Dr. Lisa Dang and her talk on “Observing the Climate of Distant Worlds with Infrared Telescopes” (Tuesday, August 16th)
