Women in STEM Rare Book Pop-Up Exhibit

Women have been active in science since the earliest formal scientific inquiry, often acting as assistants to their fathers, brothers, or husbands, but how we talk about women in science — and their work — started to change after the Renaissance. Join us for a pop-up exhibit celebrating groundbreaking scientists from a variety of fields, including astronomy, physics, geology, and life sciences, both in the wider scientific community and at Yale.

Featured scientists include:

Kimball Smith Series - From Labs to Lawmakers: Advancing Policy Through Scientific Expertise

Join STEM Hill Day and the Kimball Smith Series for a discussion on the role of science advocacy in shaping public policy, featuring Tara Drozdenko, Director of the Global Security Program at the Union of Concerned Scientists. This one-hour event will explore how scientists, researchers, and science-based policymakers can effectively communicate their expertise to lawmakers, navigate the complexities of science advocacy, and contribute to evidence-based policymaking.

Talk Title: COHERENT: Using Small Recoils to Look for Big Discoveries

Abstract: The COHERENT collaboration is pioneering the study of Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering (CEvNS), a process only recently observed. Using the Spallation Neutron Source at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, COHERENT has deployed a suite of detectors using diverse technologies and targets. This talk will provide an overview of the collaboration’s experimental efforts and status. Beyond the initial measurements of CEvNS, COHERENT’s results have opened new avenues of discovery potential.
