Curious about the Advanced Science Research Center? Learn more about our five research initiatives at the ASRC IlluminationSpace. At the ASRC IlluminationSpace, located at the Advanced Science Research Center of The Graduate Center of The City University of New York, students explore five exciting and interconnected areas of science — nanoscience, photonics, structural biology, neuroscience, and environmental
Selecting and managing financial assets based on social and environmental performance is undergoing rapid growth and fundamental change. Investors are increasingly pressed by asset owners to prove how one company's practices are more or less sustainable than those of another. Yet, sustainability measures that companies declare are hardly standardized and difficult to verify, with metrics

Living Light: Towards Understanding the Fundamental Mechanism of Color & Light Production in Nature Speaker Dimitri Deheyn, Ph.D. University of California, San Diego Dimitri Deheyn is a Scripps marine biologist developing research in the field of biomimicry: the process of emulating Nature to support green and sustainable innovations for various industries. His research aims at
In this workshop, Melanie Sinche will discuss the skills that Ph.D.s organically develop during the course of their graduate and postdoctoral training as well as how to translate them to employers in various fields. Sinche will draw on the results from a large survey she recently conducted to identify which sectors Ph.D.s in STEM fields
High throughput cryo-electron tomography: Visualizing molecular machines in cells at high resolution
Workshop: Git for Scientific Software Development and Collaboration Speaker Zachary Tessler Environmental Sciences Initiative, ASRC Abstract Git is a software tool for managing and sharing code, and is often used for collaboration through GitHub (or Bitbucket, or GitLab, or …). If you write any code, or regularly use open-source software, git is a tool to
