SUMMARY:Powdermill Avian Research Center Free Guided Tour
DESCRIPTION:When: Friday\, September 4\, 2026\, 8–9:30 a.m.\nWhere: Powdermill Nature Reserve\nTickets: Free \nEnjoy a free guided tour of the bird banding lab and research facility including the flight tunnel. Visit the bird banding lab and see up-close how researchers safely capture and band birds\, and learn about the data they gather. Hear about how we’re studying avian perception of glass to provide glass manufacturers and building designers with important information that will help reduce bird-window collisions. This event takes place in an area typically closed to the public\, so make sure you don’t miss it! \nGuests must pre-register for the tour and arrive at PARC by 8 a.m. The tour is 1.5 hours long.

SUMMARY:Canceled: R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar: Building CURIES\, a Uranium Fingerprint Library for Nuclear Forensics
DESCRIPTION:Talk: Building CURIES\, a Uranium Fingerprint Library for Nuclear Forensics \nSpeaker: Dr. Tyler Spano\, \nWhen: Monday\, September 14\, 2026\, 12:00–1:00 p.m. \nWhere: Zoom \nTickets: Free. Museum admission not required. \nUpdate: This lecture has been canceled. We apologize for any inconvenience.  \n Nuclear forensics is exactly what it sounds like: think CSI: Crime Scene Investigation for radioactive materials. Nuclear forensics researchers seek to determine the origin and history (provenance) of nuclear materials found outside of regulatory control. Speaker Dr. Tyler Spano’s research involves looking for unique “fingerprints” in uranium materials that can give clues into what the sample is\, where it may have come from\, and what processes it has been through. CURIES (the Compendium of Uranium Raman and Infrared Experimental Spectra) serves as a “fingerprint” library. Using expert analysis in combination with machine learning\, CURIES can be used to identify known and unknown nuclear materials. \nUpcoming R.W. Moriarty Science Seminars\nLearn about scientific discoveries directly from the experts in the field. Carnegie Museum of Natural History’s scientific research staff and invited speakers discuss their latest findings on numerous scientific topics at the R.W. Moriarty Science Seminar series.
