This virtual event offers an exciting opportunity for participating classrooms to Zoom in and rotate through an array of undergraduate student-facilitated neuroscience presentations. The event will begin with opening remarks about brain awareness week\, the brain\, and the benefits of brain and nervous system research before students engage with an interdisciplinary panel of faculty/researchers\, who will discuss their work\, careers in science\, and student questions. Students will then be divided into groups and led through a series of fun\, interactive activities and exhibitions. They will learn about neuroanatomy through the dissection of a sheep brain\, build model neurons\, and learn about tactile stimulation and the homunculus. Students will also explore the sensory systems that control the way we see and hear\, visualize neurotransmission\, and think of ways to boost brain health before concluding with meditation activities. After the workshop sessions\, students will participate in a NeuroBee Kahoot! competition to test their knowledge\, learn more about the brain\, and expand their interest in neuroscience. The event will conclude with awards recognizing the NeuroBee winners (middle school students only). \nRegistration is required for the zoom link.

Heuser Lecture featuring William Richards ‘04 DESCRIPTION:The architectural response to the concept of community has always been much broader than shelter.

This is a talk about “intentional communities” and why the choices we make in living together can enrich the values of the communities we choose. Via Zoom\, registration required. \nRegister Here.

Presented virtually\, this exhibition includes artists whose work challenges and celebrates new media. As with past Biennials\, our definition is boundary-pushing and inclusive\, seeking a diverse range of experimental work\, collectively evoking an open-ended conversation. \nRegister Here. \nJessica Fuquay is a Colombian American interdisciplinary artist\, composer\, and DJ currently based in Pittsburgh\, PA. She makes videos\, performances\, and sound compositions that activate the embedded histories of specific sites and events through sustained observation\, listening\, and sometimes intervention. She is currently a second-year MFA Candidate at Carnegie Mellon School of Art in Pittsburgh\, PA and has participated in residencies at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in Madison\, ME and Project Row Houses in Houston\, TX. \nKara Güt‘s work investigates the new shape of human intimacy formed by internet lifestyle\, constructed detachment from reality\, and the power dynamics of the virtual. Using image and screen-based media\, she questions ownership of digital spaces and how they mirror or perpetuate oppressive systems. The resulting pieces are subversions of power: at times manifesting as imperfect relics attempting to perform a hidden and ineffable magic\, or long-form video essays haunting the devices they inhabit. Employing tropes of absurdist humor mixed with existential dread\, her work pokes at the underpinnings of internet culture by appropriating the subgenres of the post-digital patriarchal industrial complex. \njazsalyn (she/her)\, work begins where fiction and reality collide. As an anti-disciplinary artist\, she weaves together new media and activism as methodology to decolonize and re-indigenize the future of art\, design\, and social practices. \nAs the Creative Director of black beyond\, a radical platform for artists and activists to define alternate realities for Blackness\, jazsalyn collaborates with BIPOC and non-BIPOC co-liberators to reconstruct\, reclaim and reimagine Black (Indigineous) narratives. \nHer work has been featured in publications such as CULTURED Magazine\, Vogue.com\, The New Yorker\, and Huffington Post. Exhibitions and panels such as TEDx Durham and Textiles as a Second Skin at MoogFest. \n  URL:https://wheatoncollege.edu/event/2021-wheaton-biennial-artist-talk/ LOCATION:Virtual CATEGORIES:Arts ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://wheatoncollege.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/biennial_jazsalyn.png ORGANIZER;CN="Arts at Wheaton":MAILTO:kuszaj_jessica@wheatoncollege.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20210420T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20210420T130000 DTSTAMP:20260404T185219 CREATED:20210415T195604Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210419T121457Z UID:10004963-1618920000-1618923600@wheatoncollege.edu SUMMARY:Chemistry at Wheaton Through the Years DESCRIPTION:Join us for a panel discussion by alumnae with Elita Pastra-Landis ’69\, Emerita Professor of Chemistry at Wheaton; Hilary Magruder Gaudet ’09\, Assistant Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry; and Carina Rose Sclafani ’20\, IRTA Fellow at The National Institutes of Health. \nThe discussion will cover topics ranging from their shared appreciation of science\, the benefits of studying and learning from and with one another\, to the long standing tradition of mentoring and creating a collaborative environment within the Wheaton laboratories. \nRegister Here URL:https://wheatoncollege.edu/event/chemistry-at-wheaton-through-the-years/ LOCATION:Virtual CATEGORIES:Alumni,Career,Faculty & Staff,STEM,Students,Virtual ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://wheatoncollege.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Carina-2.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Alumni Relations":MAILTO:alum@wheatoncollege.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20210421T183000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20210421T200000 DTSTAMP:20260404T185219 CREATED:20210211T122914Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210411T154305Z UID:10004779-1619029800-1619035200@wheatoncollege.edu SUMMARY:Making the Market: Jemuel Stephenson DESCRIPTION:“Jemuel Stephenson is a Boston-based designer and entrepreneur specializing in digital fabrication for creative business.” \nJoin us on April 21st from 6:30PM to 8ish.
