SUMMARY:The Sounds of Science: Hearing Music Through Art and Science
DESCRIPTION:Stop out to Site-1 Brewing on April 29 at 7pm to learn about “The Sounds of Science: Hearing Music Through Art and Science.” \nModerated by Dr. Allison Coffin\, Associate Professor at Creighton University\, panelists Dr. Chris Strecker\, Director of the Technology Core and Spatial Hearing and Auditory Neuroscience Lab and Dr. A. Barron Breland\, Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs & Dean of the Graduate School at Creighton University\, will lead a discussion on how we perceive sound and hearing from the arts and science perspectives. \n  \nSpeaker Bios: \nDr. Chris Stecker is the Director of the Technology Core and Spatial Hearing and Auditory Neuroscience Lab. Dr. Stecker has a bachelor’s degree in cognitive science and a doctorate in cognitive psychology. His current research focuses on using behavioral\, computational\, and neuroimaging (functional MRI) techniques to study how the brain processes spatial information. \nDr. A. Barron Breland is Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs & Dean of the Graduate School at Creighton University where he previously served as Chair of the Department of Fine & Performing Arts. He holds degrees in Music Theory and Choral Conducting from the University of Georgia and the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music. He has arranged\, conducted\, and performed broadly and across genres. He is also the Artistic Director of the Heartland Mixed Chorus. \nDr. Allison Coffin is an Associate Professor at Creighton University. Her research examines the cellular mechanisms of hearing loss from diverse toxic insults (noise\, ototoxic drugs) and works to develop preventative or restorative therapies. Current research seeks to identify occult hearing (oto) toxins and develop predictive models to determine ototoxic potential early in pre-clinical drug development. She is also the co-founder and President of the Association of Science Communicators\, a professional organization that seeks to increase the impact of science in society.

SUMMARY:Meet a Meteorologist
DESCRIPTION:Grab a beer and get your questions ready for our “Meet a Meteorologist” event with KETV NewsWatch 7’s very own Caitlin Harvey. \nCaitlin will be at Site-1 Brewing (Farnam location) on April 25 at 7pm to talk about her education\, work and all things weather at this free event. After Caitlin’s talk\, you will have the chance to have all your weather and meteorology questions answered by the expert. \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. \nThis event is all ages\, and FREE\, though a ticket is required due to space capacity. Reserve your tickets here. \n

SUMMARY:Sunday Science with The Bad Astronomer\, Phil Plait
DESCRIPTION:Come out to Site-1 Brewing on Sunday\, April 23 at 4pm to hear from The Bad Astronomer\, Phil Plait. \nJoin Phil as he talks about his new book\, “Under Alien Skies.” Following his presentation\, you are invited to ask Phil all your science questions. Books will be available for purchase at this event. \nHave you ever wondered what it would be like to travel the universe? How would Saturn’s rings look from a spaceship sailing just above them? If you were falling into a black hole\, what’s the last thing you’d see before getting spaghettified? While traveling in person to most of these amazing worlds may not be possible—yet—the would-be space traveler need not despair: you can still take the scenic route through the galaxy with renowned astronomer and science communicator Philip Plait. \nPhilip Plait\, PhD\, is an astronomer\, sci-fi dork\, TV documentary talking head\, and all-around science enthusiast. The author of Bad Astronomy and Death from the Skies!\, he writes the Bad Astronomy newsletter and lives in Colorado. \nThis is a free\, all ages event. Tickets are required due to venue capacity.
