SUMMARY:Science on Tap: Edge AI with Dr. Chris Brinton
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to Science on Tap! Join us for an exciting talk from Dr. Chris Brinton\, Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University\, presenting Edge AI: Shaping How We Think\, Play\, and Communicate. \nDr. Brinton leads Purdue’s ION research lab and serves as inaugural faculty director of the HIVE Engineering Entrepreneurship Center. His work sits at the intersection of networking\, communications\, and machine learning—from edge network intelligence to AI-driven wireless systems—and has earned him NSF CAREER\, DARPA Young Faculty\, and Intel Rising Star honors\, among others. \nThis event is sponsored by Purdue’s Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering\, thank you for your support! We’re also grateful to community partner KNOW Eatery for generously donating their space for the evening. \nLight appetizers will be provided; attendees must purchase their own drinks. KNOW Eatery offers beer\, wine\, mixed drink cans\, THC drinks\, and mushroom/adaptogen drinks\, plus juice\, smoothies\, OLIPOP\, tea\, coffee\, and sparkling and still water.

SUMMARY:College Readiness Workshop: Using Narrative Story to Support Students  as STEM Professionals
DESCRIPTION:The narratives we tell ourselves influence our thoughts and actions. However\, STEM students may not even know what those narratives are and how the stories affect them. In many cases\, students are subjected to a rigorous technical curriculum soon after they step foot on campus and they may question if they belong in \nSTEM or even in higher education at all. Story is a tool that can allow students to make connections between their past\, current\, and potential future selves to develop their identities as engineers\, mathematicians\, and scientists. A student who may not otherwise view themselves as an engineer\, mathematician\, or scientist-a curious person\, an entrepreneur\, a researcher\, or a part of the institute’s ecosystem-may be able to demonstrate their potential to themselves and others through their lived experiences via story. Providing time for students to develop and tell their stories is a powerful way to validate the vast experiences students bring with them to college. Likewise\, as\nfaculty\, we value knowing our students. \nInspired by the Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network (KEEN) on Stories project that began in 2020\, our current efforts to bring story to Rose-Hulman reflects our interest in supporting our students in finding their passion and identity as an engineer\, scientist\, or mathematician. As both participants and architects of story experiences\, in this workshop\, we will share specific examples of ways to integrate story in classes\, research and the campus ecosystem\, including the recently launched Story@Rose podcast. Further\, we will engage session participants in creating stories and giving feedback with the opportunity to consider application in\nparticipants’ own endeavors.

SUMMARY:Science With a Twist: Butterfly Colors In Black & White (And Other Colors Too!)
DESCRIPTION:Why do some butterflies turn out darker than others — and what does that have to do with the weather? Dr. Andrew Stoehr studies how temperature shapes wing color and pattern in butterflies\, from cabbage whites in Indiana fields to specimens shipped in from Russia\, New Zealand\, and beyond. Join us for an evening of casual science and conversation as he shares what wings can tell us about a changing climate. \nWhat to Expect: Science With A Twist (SWAT) is a casual science and networking event hosted by the Indiana Academy of Science. These events bring together scientists\, educators\, engineers\, students\, and community members for informal conversations about science in a relaxed setting. Talks are short and accessible—no scientific background required\, just curiosity! \nAbout the Speaker: Dr. Andrew Stoehr grew up in Indianapolis\, Indiana and graduated from Indiana University with a degree in biology. He completed a master’s degree at Auburn University\, studying coloration\, hormones\, and behavior in House Finches. He completed his PhD at the University of California-Riverside\, where he studied coloration\, behavior\, and ecological immunity in cabbage white butterflies. His post-doctoral work at Yale University explored the evolutionary developmental genetics of butterfly wing coloration. Since 2012 he has been a professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at Butler University where he continues to study coloration in butterflies and other insects. He has recently started work on prairie ecology as well. \nPhoto Credit: Butler University \n
