SUMMARY:CBE Spring Seminar with Judge John Murphy
DESCRIPTION:How a Cornell Chemical Engineer Became a Federal Judge\, and the Lessons Learned Along the Way\nIn this talk\, Judge Murphy will trace his path from Olin Hall to the halls of justice\, and share a few insights he’s had over the years.  Loosely under that umbrella\, he’ll cover topics like: (i) how the law works (from the perspective of an engineer); (ii) careers in law; (iii) unexpected connections among the fields of law\, science\, and engineering; (iv) some of the challenges facing our legal system at the intersection of law and science; and\, of course\, (v) why an education in chemical engineering really does prepare you for anything.  For more information\, view the Cornell events calendar listing. \nAbout the Speaker\nJohn Murphy (ChemE ’99) is a judge for the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.  Before being appointed to the court in 2022 by President Biden\, Judge Murphy was an intellectual property litigation partner at the law firm of Baker & Hostetler in Philadelphia\, where he focused on patent\, copyright\, trademark\, and trade secret disputes\, as well as advising clients on the development and strategic business uses of intellectual property.  He represented plaintiffs and defendants in about equal number in district courts around the country and before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit\, as well as the U.S. International Trade Commission\, arbitration panels\, and mediators.  His representations involved commercial packaging\, orthopedic medical devices and materials\, chemical and biological therapeutics\, tablet and telephone hardware\, semiconductor manufacturing\, and cryptographic software\, among others.  Judge Murphy teaches patent litigation and strategy as an adjunct professor at both Villanova Law School and Rutgers Law School.  He is co-author of the fifth edition of Patent Litigation and Strategy (West 2017) along with Federal Circuit Chief Judge Kimberly A. Moore and Professor Timothy Holbrook.  Judge Murphy also clerked for Chief Judge Moore early in his career.  He graduated from Harvard Law School\, where he was editor-in-chief of the Harvard Journal of Law and Technology and an active member of the Harvard Mediation Program.  Before that\, he obtained a Ph.D. in chemical engineering at Caltech.  There\, he worked in the laboratory of Professor Mark E. Davis on a thesis entitled “Methods for Collection and Processing of Gene Expression Data.”  Judge Murphy spent four happy years studying at Cornell University\, graduating with B.S.\, summa cum laude\, in Chemical Engineering in 1999.

SUMMARY:Careers for PhDs: Science Writing
DESCRIPTION:You enrolled in a STEM doctoral program because you love science. But if you’re like a large proportion of your fellow PhD students\, you may be rethinking whether a bench scientist career is for you. Science writing\, and science communication more generally\, can offer a great way to keep the wonder of science at the forefront of your work\, while affording a breadth of engagement with scientific discovery unavailable in a hyperspecialized research career. Numerous and varied opportunities exist in a wide range of employment sectors\, from academia\, industry and government to healthcare\, journalism and freelancing. A panel of PhD-holding science communicators will discuss these paths\, their daily work lives\, and ways current PhD students can explore and prepare for careers in the field. \nCareers Beyond Academia invites you to REGISTER HERE \nThe panelists:\nBethany Brookshire (PhD\, Physiology and Pharmacology\, Wake Forest U.\, 2010)\, Freelance science writer and podcaster\, author of Pests: How Humans Create Animal Villains (Ecco\, 2022). \n  \nJill Sakai (PhD\, Neuroscience\, U. of Wisconsin–Madison\, 2006)\, Freelance science writer and Assistant Managing Editor\, Science News Explores \n  \nAshley Smart (PhD\, Chemical Engineering\, Northwestern U.\, 2007)\, Associate Director\, Knight Science Journalism Program\, MIT\, and Senior Editor\, Undark Magazine \n  \nSponsored by Syracuse University

SUMMARY:Science Communication Workshop
DESCRIPTION:This weekend workshop trains researchers in the sciences (including natural sciences\, engineering\, experimental social sciences\, etc.) to communicate effectively with nonscientists such as policy makers\, political stakeholders\, the media\, and the general public. A public panel discussion on Opportunities in Science Communication kicks off the COMM 5660 course and is held Friday 4:30-6:30pm. The Friday session is open to the public. \nLearn about the range of opportunities for public engagement and ways to integrate public engagement with your other professional activities. The speakers will share how they got into science communication\, reasons why they continue to do so\, opportunities and challenges of integrating communication activities with other professional activities\, specific skills to work on that are useful elsewhere\, and goals they have for future science communication activities. There will be opportunities to ask questions of the panelists and informal discussion will follow. \nTo participate in the full weekend workshop\, you must register for the COMM 5660 course \nFriday\, 22 March \n4:30 pm Panel: Opportunities for public communication of science \n\nAllasandra Valdez\, PhD student\, Ecology & Evolutionary Biology\, and host of The Happy Botanist podcast and related materials\nAmelia Greiner Safi\, Professor of Practice\, Department of Public and Ecosystem Health\, College of Veterinary Medicine\nMichelle Kortenaar\, executive director of the Sciencenter\nOthers TBA\n\n6:00(ish) pm    Informal discussion supported by pizza and veggies \n9-5 Saturday COMM 5660 continues with writing science for the public\, developing and writing your own stories\, a presentation on Integrating communication with your graduate research\, discussion of pictures and video\, and learning about the science communication system \n9-5 Sunday COMM 5660 continues with re-writing press releases/blog posts following critique\, developing and delivering media messages with guest speaker from Cornell Media Relations\, being interviewed\, science policy \nAccessibility Requests\nWe strive to make our events accessible to all community members. Individuals who would like to request accessibility accommodations should contact gradcareers@cornell.edu. We ask that requests be made at least one week in advance to help ensure they can be met. \nStarting with a public panel discussion on Opportunities for Public Communication of Science\, this weekend workshop trains researchers in the sciences (including natural sciences\, engineering\, experimental social sciences\, etc.) to communicate effectively with nonscientists such as policy makers\, political stakeholders\, the media\, and the general public. Training activities may include role-play\, mini lectures\, reading/discussion\, hands-on writing blog posts and other outreach materials\, real-time practice being interviewed for the media\, and discussion with invited speakers. Several guest speakers will be featured throughout the weekend. The below public panel discussion on Opportunities in Science Communication kicks off the COMM 5660 course and is held Friday 4:30-6:30pm. The weekend workshop runs 9-5pm Saturday and Sunday. Lunch is on your own. Must attend all three sessions for credit. \nLearning Objectives:\nAfter participating in this workshop\, students will be able to: \nDiscuss science communication opportunities\, both within traditional scientific careers and as standalone careers\nBegin identifying characteristics of potential audiences for science communication\nWrite drafts of short texts (such as blog posts\, tweets\, and similar items) for non-scientific audiences\nBegin planning for media interviews\nDiscuss social\, ethical\, and scholarly issues associated with science communication\nCredit:\nTo get credit for the class you must attend all sessions. Enroll now via class roster. If past the add/drop deadline\, please email Susi Varvayanis (sv27@cornell.edu) with your Cornell netID. \nTestimonial:\n“One of the most engaging Careers Beyond Academia/BEST experiences for me was a science communication workshop that I attended taught by Bruce Lewenstein. This was an excellent crash course on science communication and forced me to think through how the public receives and perceives scientific news and how I could best communicate my own work to the public without over complicating it.”-Felicity Emerson\, Biomedical and Biological Sciences \nSupported by Cornell’s Department of Communication and Careers Beyond Academia in the Graduate School.
