SUMMARY:Unix Shell Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Learn Skills for Research Software Engineering. The Unix shell has been around longer than most of its users have been alive. It has survived because it’s a powerful tool that allows users to perform complex and powerful tasks\, often with just a few keystrokes or lines of code. It helps users automate repetitive tasks and easily combine smaller tasks into larger\, more powerful workflows.\nCONTACT: facilitator@datascience.wisc.edu\nURL: https://uw-madison-datascience.github.io/2025-10-01-uwmadison-mini/

SUMMARY:git/GitLab
DESCRIPTION:Learn Skills for Research Software Engineering. Learn to use version control with Git. Version control is the lab notebook of the digital world: it’s what professionals use to keep track of what they’ve done and to collaborate with other people. Every large software development project relies on it\, and most programmers use it for their small jobs as well. And it isn’t just for software: books\, papers\, small data sets\, and anything that changes over time or needs to be shared can and should be stored in a version control system.\nCONTACT: facilitator@datascience.wisc.edu\nURL: https://uw-madison-datascience.github.io/2025-10-01-uwmadison-mini/

SUMMARY:Finding Your Place in Science
DESCRIPTION:A reflective workshop on belonging\, identity\, and the paths of science\, guided by Madison author\, editor\, and writing mentor. All Welcome.\n\n\nFinding Your Place in Science: A Writing Workshop to Explore Scientific Identity \nOct. 20\, 3 pm\, Location: 1145 Discovery Building \nLight snacks provided \nMichelle Wildgen is an editor\, teacher\, and writer of literary fiction and essays\, as well as the author of four novels and cofounder of the Madison Writers’ Studio. \nA scientific identity – essentially\, whether a person feels they belong in the world of science —is associated with longevity and success in STEM-related fields. But what does it mean to belong in science? Does it matter if you identify as a science person? \nAs part of the Wisconsin Science Festival\, the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery is offering a writing workshop focused on scientific identity\, aimed at undergrad and graduate students\, but also open to the public. We’ll discuss some of the components researchers have identified as part of this sense of belonging in science; consider some of the conscious and unconscious assumptions we might have about who belongs in science; and expand our definitions and explore how varied a scientific identity can be. With a mix of discussion in small and large groups and impromptu writing\, we’ll investigate the broad concept of an identity and how it can be useful in the face of obstacles. Finally\, we’ll consider the more specific idea of belonging in the scientific realm\, what helps you find that sense of belonging and what might prevent it. \nThis workshop is not solely for people who already feel they belong–plenty of people study and work in science without being certain if they do–but for anyone who is interested in using writing and discussion to consider and clarify what this concept of scientific identity means to you.

SUMMARY:Finding Your Place in Science:  Writing Workshop to Explore Scientific Identity
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Wisconsin Science Festival\, hosted by WID. Michelle Wildgen—editor\, teacher\, and author—will lead a Wisconsin Science Festival writing workshop on scientific identity. Aimed at students but open to all\, the session explores what it means to “belong in science.” Through discussion and writing\, participants will examine assumptions about who fits in STEM\, broaden ideas of identity\, and reflect on how belonging (or not) shapes persistence in science. Registration required\, limited space.\nCONTACT: 316-4325\, lredeagle@wisc.edu\nURL: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/finding-your-place-in-science-tickets-1641129435319?aff=oddtdtcreator

SUMMARY:Crossroads of Ideas: Threading the Story of Earth's Oldest Rocks
DESCRIPTION:Ancient geology meets modern creativity! Scientists studying the Earth’s oldest rocks collab with a textile artist to bring them to life!\n\n\nJoin us for a very special Wisconsin Science Festival edition of Crossroads of Ideas\, where ancient geology meets modern creativity. This engaging evening features scientists Tyler Blum\, Annie Bauer\, and Emily Mixon\, who have been studying the Earth’s oldest rocks – Acasta Gneiss (that’s pronounced “nice”) – and collaborating with local textile artist\, Leah Evans\, to bring 4-billion-year-old stories to life. \nIn conversation with UW-Madison Geology Museum Associate Director\, Brooke Norsted\, learn how these researchers and artist have explored deep time\, planetary processes\, and creative interpretation. Be among the first to experience the unveiling of Leah’s final artwork – an awe-inspiring textile piece created for the Geology Museum. Learn how curiosity\, conversation\, and collaboration turned billion-year-old rocks into an artistic and scientific celebration of deep time and deeper connections. \nThis event will take place in the DeLuca Forum in the UW-Madison Discovery Building. \nRegistration requested

SUMMARY:Michelle Thaller: Cosmic Treasures
DESCRIPTION:Chasing Asteroids for Clues to the Origins of Life\n\n\nJoin Michelle Thaller\, former NASA science communicator\, for an evening exploring the origins of life. Thaller\, in conversation with Eric Wilcots\, Dean of the College of Letters & Sciences and Professor in the Dept of Astronomy\, will talk about the OSIRIS-REx mission – an audacious project to return a sample from an asteroid. No problem\, right? Just chase down a small rock 200 million miles away\, traveling literally faster than a speeding bullet\, vacuum up a sample of its surface\, and shoot it back to Earth. The story turned out to be more difficult\, dramatic\, and rewarding than anyone expected. Join us to find out why we went to so much trouble to bring back an ancient sample of our solar system and what was waiting inside that absolutely blew our minds. This event will take place in the DeLuca Forum in the Discovery Building.

SUMMARY:SoundWaves: Atomic Scale
DESCRIPTION:This academic year\, SoundWaves is exploring scales. Join us for this first edition diving into the atomic scale – and Klezmer scales!\n\n\nGaze into the world of the unimaginably small with an evening exploring the atomic scale. What is quantum computing and how does it work? How do atoms in metals organize themselves into hierarchies? As part of Klez Fest Midwest\, this special SoundWaves event will feature more live music than ever\, with the duo of Krakauer & Tagg\, featuring brilliant klezmer clarinetist David Krakauer and pianist Kathleen Tagg\, performing and explaining what gives klezmer music its characteristic style and sound (it’s all in the scales!).
