The College of Science and the Ara Parseghian Medical Research Foundation will host the Parseghian Classic, a golf fundraiser to raise money for Niemann-Pick Type C disease research. The Parseghian Classic will take place June 21-24 at Pebble Beach.
Physics of Atomic Nuclei (PAN) is an outreach program at the Nuclear Science Laboratory (NSL) at University of Notre Dame. It is run by the Joint Institute for Nuclear Astrophysics (JINA) and either NSL faculty and staff. We welcome students who have completed at least one year of high school and science teachers (primarily high school physics or chemistry, though others have found the program useful). The program introduces participants to the fundamentals of the extremely small domain of atomic nuclei and its connection to the extremely large domain of astrophysics and cosmology.
John Pijanowski, Ph.D.
Associate Professor and Co-Director of the Wally Cordes Cetner for Teaching and Faculty Suppor Services
University of Arkansas
Dr. Pijanowski’s research focuses on how people translate moral thinking into moral action. He is currently leading a National Science Foundation-funded effort to develop ethics curriculum and teaching guides for future scientists across the United States. He teaches several ethics courses including The Moral Mind in Action, Moral Courage, Teaching Character, and Leadership Ethics.
Sensing The Cosmos is a one week-long summer program that is designed to expose middle school students to the exciting world of science, mathematics, and technology. Participants meet with various scientists to learn about their research, visit different academic departments & research labs on campus, and learn through intensive hands-on activities. Program instructors include Notre Dame faculty, staff, and graduate students from the Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Biological Sciences, & Engineering Departments.

This camp is an extension of JINA's Art 2 Science program which introduces children to the wonders of the physical universe. We utilize a multidisciplinary approach to learning by integrating reading, writing, and a variety of art forms with math and the physical sciences. Participants will learn about math, physics, astronomy, and chemistry by creating works of art and hands-on projects. Chosen activities will be designed by collaborations with local science and art teachers, QuarkNet, Riverbend Math Center, the NASA Planck Mission, and more!
Doctoral dissertation and master’s thesis formal submissions are due for August 2013 graduation. To submit a formal document, students must use the Electronic Thesis and Dissertation (ETD) website at http://etd.nd.edu.

The Summer Undergraduate Research Symposium will be held on Friday, August 2. Details will follow at a later date.
Join us to hear presentations from the 2013 Medical Mission Stipend Winners.
The speaker for the Emil T. Hofman Lecture will be Mark Walsh, M.D.
The time of the presentation is TBD.
Lectures are free and guests are welcome. Please bring your family and friends. CMEs will be provided. The level of CMEs is dependent on the content of the lecture.
Speaker: Damien Dauphinee, D.P.M.

Please note: The lecture will begin at 1:00 p.m. Please plan to join us for the Dooley Society tailgate in the Galleria from 2:00-4:00 p.m.
Join the Dooley Society for a tailgate prior to the USC game. This is a great opportunity to get together with fellow alums and current Notre Dame undergraduate students interested in a career in medicine. Notre Dame undergraduates will be presenting posters about their involvement in cutting edge research projects and how these research opportunities are preparing them for exciting careers in the medical field.
Details for the Fall Undergraduate Research Fair will be posted at the beginning of the fall semester.
Speaker: Keri Oxley, M.D., M.P.A.
