💡 Light is more than just illumination — it's the energy that drives life itself. Tim Zuhlsdorff, a physical chemist at Oregon State University and NSF CAREER Award recipient, studies what happens when molecules interact with light in dynamic environments. His research relies on computational methods, using massive supercomputers to simulate complex systems. Read more on Impact! https://lnkd.in/gfEjf7QM 📸 Aiden Burgess

🖥️ 🧠 🌊 How can artificial intelligence help us understand both the human brain and the deep sea? Microbiome scientist Maude David is using AI to uncover the connections between gut bacteria and neurological disorders like autism—while also exploring the hidden world of deep-sea microbes. Her innovative, data-driven research could transform our understanding of both human health and ocean ecosystems! https://lnkd.in/ghBPCEXK

The College of Science celebrates its 29th Goldwater Scholar! Join us in congratulating Natalie Donato, a third-year Honors biology student passionate about sharks! This isn’t Natalie’s first accolade—she also earned a research internship with the Chapple Big Fish Lab through the Undergraduate Research, Scholarship, and the Arts (URSA) program. You might remember Natalie from our recent post about the stunning Oregon shark license plate she designed. Pre-scale vouchers are still available. Read more here --> https://lnkd.in/gzUHF52e 👏 Let’s give Natalie another round of applause! #goldwaterscholar #TeamScience #undergraduateresearch #sharkresearch #sharks Oregon State University Honors College Oregon State University College of Agricultural Sciences

Happy Women's History Month! 🌟 Chung Kwai Lui made history in 1941 as the first woman to earn a Ph.D. in any field at OSU—right here in the College of Science! She earned her doctorate in physics and went on to become nationally recognized for her groundbreaking research on the Manhattan Project and innovations in phosphor development.

🦈 You can support shark research! 🦈 Natalie Donato, a third-year biology major studying marine biology and ecology, designed this brand new shark themed license plate in a blend of art and science. Sales from the Vibrant Ocean license plate will benefit the Big Fish lab where she's doing undergraduate shark research. Check out the feature in The Oregonian / OregonLive.com to learn more and reserve one for yourself!👇 Way to go, Natalie! https://lnkd.in/gqxQnhzT Oregon State University

We love opportunities to see our alumni! Shane graduated from the Department of Physics in 1991. He is currently a research professor and associate director of the Center for Interdisciplinary Exploration and Research in Astrophysics (CIERA) at Northwestern University.
Oregon State Alumnus Shane Larson will be giving the next Astronomy on Tap at Bombs Away Cafe next Tuesday March 4th at 7PM! His talk is titled "Solitude in the Cosmos: Looking for Friends in the Great Cosmic Dark". Please join us for a short lecture, followed by a Q&A session and trivia! Shane grew up in Eastern Oregon. He received his BS in physics from Oregon State, and his MS and PhD from Montana State. He is an award-winning teacher, and a Fellow of the American Physical Society. He contributes regularly to a public science blog at writescience.wordpress.com, and posts at Bluesky with the handle @sciencejedi .
