Jim Hutchison featured on ScienCentral piece about green nanotechnology

Face shot of Jim HutchisonSome are calling it a revolution in manufacturing technology. But, will nanotechnology be a "green" industry? It’s a question that some scientists are saying needs to be answered now, before nano-tech goes big-time. ScienCentral News has produced a video with the UO's Jim Hutchison, who is noted as one who is spinning gold -- gold and copper nanoparticles so small, billions would fit on the head of a pin.

Public event, Sept. 12: Cracking Open the Universe, the LHC and future physics

On Sept. 10, the first beam ever will be sent through and around the Large Hadron Collider, a brand new particle accelerator, in Geneva, Switzerland.

University of Oregon physicists have key roles in this international endeavor. Come to campus for a free evening event to learn more about the "first beam" and how the LHC will advance the quest of physics to learn about the fundamental nature of the universe.

Speakers: Jim Brau, Graham Kribs and Eric Torrence … Friday, Sept. 12, 7 p.m., Columbia Hall, Room 150 … MORE DETAILS.

(Anyone with an interest in science will get a bang out of this event!)

Kyr's piece debuts with new hospital

The University of Oregon Trumpet Ensemble performed a new fanfare by UO music professor Robert Kyr at the RiverBend Hospital earlier this summer. PeaceHealth commissioned the piece for the opening of the RiverBend facility. Click HERE to watch a brief video clip of the performance.
