Bonita Sharif and her graduate students will lead a Virtual Sunday with a Scientist program on May 23.

Morrill Hall’s Virtual Sunday with a Scientist program will feature a 2 p.m. May 23 exploration of computer science and engineering led by Nebraska’s Bonita Sharif, and her student researchers, Cole Peterson and Niloofar Mansoor. In this game-driven event offered via Zoom, participants will explore computer science and learn about how data is transmitted and checked for errors.

Registration, which is required in advance, is available here. It will also be available via Morrill Hall’s Facebook page.

Sunday with a Scientist is a monthly event that highlights the work of scientists, while educating children, families and the university community on a variety of topics related to science and natural history. Presenters share scientific information in a fun, informal way through demonstrations, activities or by conducting science on site. During summer 2021, events will be hosted virtually over Zoom and Facebook Live.
