Join us for the first in a series of three Science on Screen® (SoS) events in 2017, made possible through a generous grant from the Coolidge Corner Theatre Foundation with generous support from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. SoS is a national film program that pairs Alfred P. Sloan Foundation-supported films and other arthouse and independent titles with engaging commentary from scientists working in related fields. National Evening of Science on Screen is a nationwide event and the Colonial Theatre will be one of 19 theatres participating.
Association for the Colonial Theatre reopened the historic Colonial Theatre in 1999 with the 1998 German film Run Lola Run. For the 2017 National Evening of Science on Screen, Physicist and Professor Casey M. Schwarz, PhD will deliver a 20-minute talk "Chaos Theory: Butterflies and Drug Lords" at 7:30. Run Lola Run will begin immediately after the talk, with time for a Q&A after the film.
A reception will be held at 6:30 PM for Ursinus College Alumni and Colonial Members.
Casey M. Schwarz is an assistant professor of Physics at Ursinus College. She completed her PhD in Physics at the University of Central Florida in 2012 studying the radiation effects of semiconductor transport properties. Her current research interests include 3D laser writing of novel materials, development and design of optical devices, and optical characterization. She also loves finding physics in films. Casey lives in Collegeville with her husband and dog. Click to learn more about Ursinus College's Physics & Astronomy Department.
