STEM Undergraduate Summer Research Info Session

January 24, 2020 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm

This event will feature a number of undergraduate summer research programs which place students with mentors at the CUNY ASRC and other local institutions. Many programs offer stipends and other support packages. Participating programs include: CUNY Summer Undergraduate Program (CSURP) Materials Research Center Research Experience for Undergraduates Program (MRSEC REU) and Nano-NY Research Experience for Undergraduates program in Biochemistry, Biophysics and Biodesign (B3-REU) CREST Center for Interface Design and Engineered Assembly of Low Dimensional […]

The Beauty of Science Now on View at the ASRC

Science and art converge in an unusual exhibition featuring images of brain cells, photos of trees, and paintings inspired in part by the eyes of endangered animals.

The show, called Objects & objectivities: Convergences in epistemic divergence, is on display at The Graduate Center’s Advanced Science Research Center.

The exhibition was funded by Vigdor’s PSC CUNY grant. The exhibit is open Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. through Dec. 21 at the ASRC (85 St. Nicholas Terrace, fourth floor, Manhattan).

Professor Sfeir Named Highly Cited Researcher

Three faculty members at The Graduate Center, CUNY were named Highly Cited Researchers, according to the Highly Cited Researchers 2019 list from the Web of Science Group, including Matthew Sfeir, professor of physics at The Graduate Center and a faculty member in the Photonics Initiative at the CUNY ASRC.
