- FREE for members; tickets are required.
- Exhibit admission and $3 planetarium show cost for nonmembers.
The Northern Lights are one of the most beautiful and fascinating natural phenomena on our planet. Using a series of visualizations from NASA, this presentation explains what causes them, some of the ways NASA studies the sun, and why studying the sun is so important.
Speaker: Xiyuan ‘Lillian’ Liu, PhD, Assistant Teaching Professor, Department of Biomedical and Chemical Engineering and Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Syracuse University
Talk Overview: What would you do with one droplet of fluid? Can you imagine how much information can be extracted from one droplet of sweat, tear or blood? Do you believe that by wearing a custom t-shirt, socks or a headband, the information related to your health conditions can be gathered in real time? The newest advances in wearable microtechnology can help us achieve that. Join us to have some hands-on experience and learn microfluidics and wearable sensors!
Biography: Xiyuan Liu is an assistant teaching professor in the Department of Biomedical and Chemical Engineering and Department of Mechanical and Chemical Engineering. She received her B.S. in Electrical Engineering in China in 2009 and then completed her M.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Clemson University. After that, Lillian finished her PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Michigan State University. She specializes in microfluidics, point-of-care diagnosis and flexible wearable biosensor technology. Specifically, her work focuses on developing biosensing, lab-on-a-chip systems for the emerging applications in clinical diagnosis, wearable sensing and mobile heath (mHeath) technology.
