Coming Attractions

Johns Hopkins Institute for NanoBioTechnology (INBT) will host four professional development seminars for scientists and engineers this summer. These seminars aim to expand student’s knowledge of issues and ideas relevant to, but outside of, the laboratory and classroom experience. Topics include intellectual property, commercialization and entrepreneurship, science journalism and publishing, ‘life after college,” and much more. Talks will be held at 11 a.m., on June 16, June 30, July 14 and July 28 at a location to be determined. All JHU/JHMI and APL faculty, staff and students are invited to attend these free seminars designed to promote discussion and interaction with scientific and engineering professionals. Please visit http://inbt.jhu.edu for more details on speakers and locations closer to the scheduled dates.

Two weeks of free events in the Washington, D.C. area lead up to a two-day Science Expo on the National Mall, October 23-24, 2010. Johns Hopkins Institute for NanoBioTechnology will join more than 350 of the nation’s leading scientific organizations for this first-of-its-kind science and engineering extravaganza. INBT will present an exhibit on nanobiotechnology and self assembly. More than 750 exhibits spanning aerospace, green energy, medicine, biotechnology, climatology, robotics, nanotechnology, botany, neuroscience, genetics, and many other scientific disciplines will be free to all. The festival is hosted by Lockheed Martin. For a complete list of sponsors, partners and exhibitors go to www.usasciencefestival.org.
