Morrill Hall’s Virtual Sunday with a Scientist will focus on “The Fun Science of Light” at 2 p.m. March 28.

The program will be led by Wei Bao, assistant professor in the University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

Participants will learn about photons and how they move, hear about Bao’s journey to photonic research and explore how the science of light is relevant to daily life. In addition, participants will see several light and laser demonstrations.

Sign up to participate in this free program over Zoom.

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 the spring 2021 semester, events will be hosted virtually over Zoom and Facebook Live.
