Science Saturday at the Boston Public Library

CEE students and researchers lead a scientific exploration at the Boston Public Library. Participants will be guided through an interactive activity about coral reefs.

Science Saturday at the Boston Public Library

CEE students and researchers lead a scientific exploration at the Boston Public Library. Past topics have ranged from leaf chromatography to structural engineering and everything in between!

Science Saturday at Boston Public Library

CEE grad students will be leading STEM activities on Science Saturday at the Boston Public Library. Learn about leaf chromatography or how to build a wind turbine.

STEAM it Up

CEE will be participating in the STEAMitUP event aimed at K-8 students in North and East Cambridge. The hands-on STEAM activities led by grad students, include "Build a Wind Turbine" and "You won't Be Leaf it" about plant pigments and photosynthesis.

Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory Seminar Series

Please join us for the Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory Environmental Science Seminar Series with Kristie Boering from Berkeley University. The seminar is in-person at 15 Vassar Street, 48-316.

Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory Seminar Series: The biogeography of Amazon forest vulnerability and resilience to droughts

Please join us for the Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory Environmental Science Seminar Series with Professor Scott Saleska from the University of Arizona. In this talk, Saleska will  will present a new approach for combining forest plot data and remote-sensing of Amazon forest photosynthetic response with ground-based tree demography to identify a "biogeography" of Amazon forest drought response that emerges from different forest ecotypes across the basin.   The seminar is in-person at 15 Vassar Street, 48-316.
