Another great opportunity to drink and listen to a local scientist - this time the topic is Nanotechnology.
Here's the info:

"A Fantastic Voyage into Nanotechnology*: There's Still Plenty of Room at the Bottom"
*Nanotechnology is the understanding and control of matter at the nano-scale, smaller than the cells in your body

Science + Beer
Julie Masura will be giving a short talk tonight in a bar in Kirkland. Come and get a drink, for Science!
Here's the info:
Capturing and Counting Tiny Plastic Debris in Puget Sound
March 14, 2011 - 7 p.m. - Wilde Rover
This month's café features UW environmental scientist Julie Masura. Come hear how researchers at the Center for Urban Waters are creating methods to capture and measure the amount of tiny plastic particles, called microplastics, found in the ocean environment. From the deeper waters to the surface and beach.
Wilde Rover is located in downtown Kirkland at 111 Central Way.

Welcome!
The undergraduate research club is a great way to connect with the ongoing undergrad research projects at NSCC.
This current academic year we have 5 research projects goings:
- Growth of the green microalga Botryococcus Braunii in a vertical photobioreactor
- Antibacterial properties of Copper applied to water purification
- Identification and mapping of harmful algal blooms in the Puget Sound
- Microplastic identification with the Atomic Force Microscope
- Quantifying Microplastics in Lake Washington and Surrounding Watershed
If you're interested in learning more about these projects (and want some free food!) come to the Green Room on March 16th from 12pm to 2pm for presentations on each!
