SUMMARY:Lunch & Learn: Biomedical Scientist Zoltan Takacs
DESCRIPTION:Join us on April 20\, noon\, for a very special Lunch and Learn with National Geographic Live biomedical scientist\, Zoltan Takacs at the Holland Center. This intimate setting will allow you to ask questions related to Earth’s Deadliest Lifesavers and Zoltan Takacs career. \nThe Earth’s deadliest animal venoms are a source of a number of lifesaving medicines used to treat everything from heart attacks to diabetes. Yet there are millions of venom toxins in nature that remain unexplored. Biomedical scientist and inventor Zoltan Takacs collects snake\, scorpion\, jellyfish\, and other venoms from around the world. Back in the lab\, using cutting-edge genomics\, he creates combinatorial venom libraries to identify leads for novel medicines. \n\n\nDriven by his childhood passion\, he’s traveled to 155 countries and become an aircraft pilot\, scuba diver and real-life survivor\, roughing it in a hammock deep in the Amazon or in remote Pacific islands. In his mission\, he survived charging elephants\, pirated waters and a series of snake bites and venom spit in his face (all his faults he admits). Now he’s allergic to both snake venom and antivenom. \n\n\nThis event is free\, though tickets are required. Doors open at 11:30am\, lunch available for purchase. \n

SUMMARY:Ask a Meteorologist with Caitlin Harvey
DESCRIPTION:Get your questions ready for our “Ask a Meteorologist” virtual event with KETV NewsWatch 7’s very own Caitlin Harvey. \nCaitlin Harvey is a Meteorologist with KETV NewsWatch 7 in Omaha. Growing up just outside of Kansas City\, Missouri\, Caitlin is no stranger to severe weather and dramatic temperature changes. Her earliest weather memory came at the age of 4\, when a tornado warning forced her family outside into the storm cellar. Though no damage came from the warning\, that memory sparked a fascination and passion for weather and to learn what caused such severe weather. \nCaitlin attended the University of Missouri in Columbia and earned a degree in Soil\, Environmental and Atmospheric Sciences – with an emphasis in Atmospheric Science\, in 2016. Caitlin interned with NBC affiliate KOMU and went on to work at KMIZ in Columbia\, Missouri and KDRV in Medford\, Oregon. \nOutside of work\, Caitlin is part of a proud “geek” family. She is happily married to her husband\, Skip\, a comic book creator and artist\, and a proud pet parent to Starbuck\, Maeby\, Gerbie\, and Noodle. She enjoys swimming\, water skiing\, sailing\, cosplay and karaoke. \nCaitlin will join us live on our festival Facebook page on April 28 at 10am to answer all your science and weather questions. \nYou can send in questions before the event\, or ask them live in the chat the day of the event. \n  hLdF  qYvGfenTIPHV

SUMMARY:Crime Scene Investigation: DNA
DESCRIPTION:It’s what makes you\, you and me\, me. It can also be used to help law enforcement solve crimes. It’s Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid\, aka DNA! \nParticipants will get the opportunity to learn what DNA actually is and how CSI investigators use it to catch the bad guy. Participants will construct DNA using K’Nex®\, discover how DNA sequencing aids investigators\, and get to extract their own DNA and see it with their own two eyes! \nAll supplies will be provided. This program is suitable for children ages 10-15. Registration is required. \nCall Swanson staff at 402-444-4852 or email Stephanie at spoletti@omahalibrary.org to sign up. \nce   liRLpK BZ lJSYZHBuZfP

SUMMARY:Omaha Science Cafe - "Understanding the Aging Brain"
DESCRIPTION:Join Gaelle E. Doucet\, Ph.D.\, Director of the Brain Architecture\, Imaging and Cognition Laboratory at the Boys Town Institute for Human Neuroscience\, for the April 4 Omaha Science Cafe as she presents\, “Understanding the Aging Brain\,” 7pm at the Slowdown.  \nIt is clear that people do not age at the same rate. Scientists are still trying to understand why there are differences amongst individuals\, but factors such as physical activity and education seem to play a significant role in these changes. At this Science Café\, Dr. Doucet will present findings from her scientific research and share what we know about the impact of age on the brain and what can influence it. \nGaelle E. Doucet\, Ph.D.\, is the Director of the Brain Architecture\, Imaging and Cognition Laboratory. For the last 10 years\, Dr. Doucet’ research interests have involved the investigation of the brain’s architecture and its relationship to cognition in health and disease. She is a cognitive neuroscientist with expertise in functional MRI (fMRI)\, and particularly on resting-state fMRI. Her research has involved the use of multi-modal MRI to characterize the brain functional organization and she has applied this technology to answering questions about the impacts of disease on brain functional organization. \nDr. Doucet received her doctoral degree in cognitive neuroscience from the University of Caen (France) in 2010. Her work provided a description of the healthy brain intrinsic organization underlying the complex relationships between brain networks at rest in young adults. This finding offered one of the first schematic models of the brain’s functional architecture and provided a normative framework for the study of intrinsic interactions between brain networks. During her postdoctoral fellowships\, she further investigated the impact of neurological (i.e.\, epilepsy) and neuropsychiatric (i.e.\, schizophrenia and bipolar disorders) disorders on the brain architecture. \nPrior to joining Boys Town National Research Hospital\, Dr. Doucet was an assistant professor at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (New York\, NY). She has been awarded a grant from the National Institute on Aging (NIA) to identify the brain networks in aging populations. This work aims to provide the first reliable brain functional atlas for older adults. By mapping the brain networks underlying late adulthood\, this work has the potential to elucidate how dysfunction of the brain networks contributes to neurodegenerative conditions. At Boys Town Hospital\, she plans to expand this research by focusing on age-related changes on brain activity and cognition\, from childhood to late adulthood. \nDr. Doucet has authored more than 45 peer-reviewed publications that have been cited more than 1000 times. \nScience Cafés address the latest hot science topics in casual settings like pubs and coffeehouses. The events  are open to everyone (21 and older). \nUsing plain language\, an easygoing atmosphere and inclusive conversation\, these interactive events are welcoming and comfortable for people with no science background. Each presentation is followed by a question-and-answer period. \ngbpI OaBX oe GqgAc G
