Upcoming Talk: Nerd Nite Edmonton!


On February 29, 2016, I’ll be speaking at Nerd Nite Edmonton. Here’s what I’ll be talking about!

Dust: The Little Particle That Could
Over a billion tons of dust are emitted into the atmosphere each year from desert regions in Africa and Central Asia. Once emitted, dust particles can be transported around the world. During their travels, they promote cloud formation, fertilize oceanic and terrestrial ecosystems, and influence air quality in cities. I’ll talk about how and why these small particles have an outsize influence on our climate and health, and about how we can make and study dust in the lab.

This will also be the first official Styler Group outing—pictures to follow!
