Research & Innovation Week 2020: Recordings and Resources
Ƶ Boulder's third annual Research & Innovation Week took place from October 12–16, 2020.
Here, you can find recordings of each of the virtual events that took place during the week.
MOSAiC: A Year on Ice
This event took place on Wednesday, October 14, 2020.
From September 2019 to October 2020, the German icebreaker Polarstern was embedded within the Arctic sea ice and drifted for 12 months. Hundreds of scientists from around the world spent months aboard, in shifts, studying the complete Arctic climate “system,” including the ocean below, sea iceand the atmosphere above.Ƶ Boulder scientists played leading roles in the mission, dubbedMOSAiCforMultidisciplinary Drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate.
In this webinar, view spectacular images and video footage from the mission.You’ll also hear from:
- Expedition co-coordinator and lead atmospheric scientist Matthew Shupe
- Two educators who worked with dozens of MOSAiC scientists to bring their insights to students
- A videography teamwho captured mission moments in 360 degrees, creating planetarium shows that will be viewed around the world
Time and Space: A Deeper Look Into the World Around Us
This event took place on Thursday, October 15, 2020.
Through a series of captivating vignettes, some of Ƶ Boulder’s most promising faculty invite you to ride shotgun with them on their personal journeys to discovery and innovation.From revealing the hidden narratives of enslaved peoples of early America to understanding why the veins in your eyes kink in microgravity, these rising stars will give you a behind-the-scenes look at the scholarship and collaborations that unlock their pioneering, world-changing work.
