EAS’s Outreach Program offers three seminars essentially for high school teachers and students during the November meeting.\u00a0 Each seminar has outstanding presenters from academia and industry.\u00a0 The goal of each seminar is to demonstrate the advantages of a career in chemistry. \u00a0 The 2024 student seminar registration is free for middle & high school students with their teachers; seminars are included in the full-time college student registration fee of $50. \u00a0Students are encouraged to visit the Exposition after the seminar.<\/p>\n
Fifty Shades of Color\u2013 Color in Painting<\/span><\/strong> Creating a painting involves chemistry at its simplest and at its most complex.\u00a0 We shall talk about the process, what sorts of chemistry is involved, and how chemical principles are represented by what happens to a painting over time.\u00a0 \u00a0Examples from the literature will be presented.<\/p>\n Spectroscopy and the World Around Us Careers in Science \u201cLooking Back Through the Journey & Science of Color\u201d Students and teach\u00aders must pre-register to reserve a space. All seminars take place in the Crowne Plaza Princeton Conference Center in Plainsboro, NJ. Please contact Eastern Analytical Symposium at askeas@eas.org<\/span> or visit our website at www.EAS.org<\/span> for more information. Registration will open in early July.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" EAS’s Outreach Program offers three seminars essentially for high school teachers and students during the November meeting.\u00a0 Each seminar has outstanding presenters from […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-9428","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eas.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9428"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eas.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eas.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eas.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eas.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9428"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/eas.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9428\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11656,"href":"https:\/\/eas.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9428\/revisions\/11656"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eas.org\/2024\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9428"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

\n<\/strong>Registration Limited to <\/strong>TEACHERS ONLY
\n<\/strong><\/span>1:00 pm to 4:00 pm<\/span>
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Presented by Dr. Sharla Wood, Senior Principal Scientist, Bristol Myers Squibb
\n<\/strong><\/strong><\/span>Tuesday, November 19 from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm<\/span>
\n<\/strong><\/span>Join Dr. Sharla Wood, Bristol Myers Squibb, as we discover how light can be used to understand the world around us.\u00a0 Through a series of fun experiments, we will learn how spectroscopy, or the study of light and how it interacts with matter, can help us identify and learn more about materials just by how they absorb and emit light.<\/p>\n

\n<\/strong>Wednesday, November 20 from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm
\n<\/span><\/strong><\/span>This seminar introduces the student to the various types of degrees and industrial positions available for scientists with two-year, four-year degrees or advanced degrees in chemistry, biology, engineering, nutrition etc. Part I of this seminar provides a look back through the journey of working in the energy, specialty chemical, pharmaceutical, and consumer product sectors. The seminar describes how analytical thinking and instrumental methods are used to solve problems and develop products that are used every day such as; gasoline, catalysts, plastic, soap, toothpaste, dietary supplements, roofing, etc.\u00a0 Part II of the seminar reviews the science of color and includes fun hands-on experiments to learn more about light including separation, reflectance, refraction, and how Beer\u2019s law describes the relationship between absorption and concentration.\u00a0 These hands-on experiments are intended to demonstrate how scientists use these basic principles every day during their career.<\/p>\n
