SUMMARY:"Food Evolution" - Film screening and discussion
DESCRIPTION:Genetically modified food is one of the hottest\, and most debated\, topic in public policy that’s based on scientific research. Opinions on the subject are passionate\, and often polarizing\, but do not fall along typical political lines. \nAmongst all this conflict and confusion around food\, how do we make the best decisions about how we feed ourselves?\nThree organizations — Illinois Science Council\, Illinois Farm Families & Chicago Section\, IFT — are teaming up to host a public screening and discussion of a new documentary film\, Food Evolution\, about the science behind\, and the debates around genetically modified food. Following the film\, there will be a Q&A session with farmers and food researchers. \nDoors open at 6:30pm. Film starts at 7:00pm. Panel discussion at 8:30pm \nTickets should be purchased in advance here. \nThis film is not rated.  There will be no reserved seating for this event. Concessions\, which include beer & wine\, will be available for purchase. \nValidated parking is available in the New City parking garage for $5.50. for up to 5 hours. Enter from the plaza or on Schiller Street. \nAdditional information: \nNew York Times Review: In ‘Food Evolution\,’ Scientists Strike Back by Daniel M. Gold \n“With a soft tone\, respectful to opponents but insistent on the data\, “Food Evolution” posits an inconvenient truth for organic boosters to swallow: In a world desperate for safe\, sustainable food\, G.M.O.s may well be a force for good.” \nL.A. Times Review – Documentary ‘Food Evolution’ turns to reason to discuss GMO controversy by Kenneth Turan \n“Calm\, careful\, potentially revolutionary\, “Food Evolution” is an iconoclastic documentary on a hot-button topic. Persuasive rather than polemical\, it’s the unusual issue film that deals in counterintuitive reason rather than barely controlled hysteria.” \nIs ‘Food Evolution’ propaganda? No! Just an accessible presentation of a tough topic \nFilm review by David Zilberman\, professor\, agriculture and resource economics\, July 14\, 2017 \n“Food Evolution” – the ever evolving science\nFilm Review by Ben Gordon\, July 16\, 2017 \nGMO vs. Organic \nBy Brian Barth February 27\, 2017 \nTickets can be purchased in advance here.

SUMMARY:The Unexpected Universe: Astronomical Telescopes Continue to Reveal New Surprises
DESCRIPTION:Please join us!\nNinth Annual CIERA Public Lecture\nThursday\, October 5th\, 2017 | 7:30 p.m.\nNorthwestern University | Cahn Auditorium\n600 Emerson St.\, Evanston\, IL 60208\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProf. Wendy Freedman\nJohn & Marion Sullivan University Professor of Astronomy & Astrophysics\nUniversity of Chicago | Kavli Institute for Cosmological Physics\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTalk Title & Abstract\nThe Unexpected Universe:\nAstronomical Telescopes Continue to Reveal New Surprises \nCosmology in recent decades has been undergoing a revolution. Astronomers have for the first time identified the major constituents of the universe\, revealing a universe that hardly resembles what we thought only a few decades ago. It is filled with dark matter that is not visible and energy that permeates all of space\, causing its expansion to speed up with time. Thousands of planets are now being discovered beyond our Solar System. New giant telescopes planned for the next decade are likely to reveal more surprises. In her lecture\, Professor Freedman will describe these exciting advances.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Event\nWeb Site for this Event\nEmail Us\nFree & Open to the Public | No Registration or Ticket Needed\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThursday\, October 5th\, 2017 | 7:30 p.m.\nNorthwestern University | Cahn Auditorium\n600 Emerson St.\, Evanston\, IL 60208

SUMMARY:Technology and Politics
DESCRIPTION:Over the past two decades\, technology has had huge impacts on almost everything we do–everything except participate in our democracy. When it comes to the voting booths\, things look a lot like they did in 1996\, and changing that scene is really hard to do. Come talk about the role technology plays in our democracy: from campaigns to voter registration to election day\, this space is ripe for innovation. The time is now. \n \nBetsy Hoover is a Partner at Higher Ground Labs and 270 Strategies. Her political career began in 2007 as an organizer on the first Obama Campaign. In 2012\, she served as the National Digital Organizing Director\, sitting at the intersection of field\, digital\, and technology. In 2013\, Betsy co-founded 270 Strategies–a public engagement firm that works with political campaigns\, causes\, and companies all over the world. \nBetsy is an organizer first. She has been recognized by Business Insider as “at the forefront of political innovation” and was featured on Forbes magazine’s “30 Under 30: Law & Policy” list for her work on the president’s re-election campaign. \nDETAILS: Tuesday\, October 10\, 2017\, 7:00 p.m. The Radler\, 2375 N. Milwaukee Avenue\, Chicago IL\, 60647. The Radler has great food and drink available for purchase\, and welcomes guests of all ages for C2ST programs.

While I did not purchase the ticket due to the theme\, I thought it was very nicely planned and very entertaining. I love viewing the planets and the using the telescopes and attending the shows and lectures. It’s the best $20 you can spend in the city.” \n“As a parent\, I often do not have the time during the day to visit one of my favorite museums without my children. Adler After Dark gave me an opportunity to spend an evening with my husband\, explore subjects we love\, and have an interactive experience (like our children enjoy at the museum). I also love the exclusive feel of the event. It is not too crowded\, and the attendants have a chance to talk to the guests in small groups. It’s a great alternative/addition to the night life of Chicago.” \n“It was so much fun. I went…not knowing what to expect and it was a total blast. We had a drink\, danced\, met some new people\, got glam-rock face paint\, checked out the star show and the exhibits. [It was] so much more than I thought the experience was going to be and I’m definitely interested in attending future events. I have been telling all my friends and showing them photos. Great job\, it was a truly memorable experience.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdvance Purchase\n$20 General Admission/$15 Adler members \nAt the Door (Based on Availability)\n$25 General Admission/$20 Adler members \nDoane Tours\n$8 General Admission/$8 Adler members \n\nDoane Observatory tour tickets are available in limited quantity and sell out quickly.

SUMMARY:Poincaré's Legacy: Predictions on Time Scales Ranging from Milliseconds to Billions of Years
DESCRIPTION:Greg Laughlin\, Professor of Astronomy\, Yale University will discuss and connect two long-standing\, and at first glance\, entirely unrelated\, problems of prediction: (1) the long-term dynamical stability of the Solar System\, and (2) price movements and volatility in financial markets. These phenomena are radically different\, but share a key common basis in the random walk\, and the study of both can be traced directly back to the work of Henri Poincaré.
