Discover the science inside Argonne at our May 20 Open House

March 23, 2023

Calling all science fans! The U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory is opening its doors to the public for one day only: Saturday, May 20, 2023 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Register now for this free event. The Open House will feature a day full of hands-on science and technology exhibits and behind-the-scenes tours of cutting-edge research facilities.

Get up close and personal with Argonne’s diverse scientists, engineers and support staff. Meet with recruiters and find out about jobs at the lab. Learn how many different types of careers work together to change the world.

Visit one or more of our four pavilions. Each will be full of activities to engage you — and your kids — in the questions our researchers work to answer every day, and the science and technology they use to improve lives.

The Open Science Atlas – The Official PLOS Blog

The Open Science Atlas – The Official PLOS Blog

March 11, 2023

Note: PLOS is delighted to once again partner with the Einstein Foundation Award for Promoting Quality in Research with applications and nominations for this year’s awards open until April 30th, 2023 at 10:00 pm UTC.  The Einstein Foundation Awards program honors researchers who reflect rigor, reliability, robustness, and transparency in their work. To get a flavor of what the Einstein Foundation is looking for we have asked last year’s finalists to write about their work (watch this space for other finalists in the coming weeks). First up are four researchers (bios and photos at the end of the blog) who are introducing a platform to monitor transparent research practices across scientific disciplines . You can watch a video here and/or read more below.

The Open Science Atlas[1] will be a web-platform that enables continuous, large-scale monitoring of transparent research practices across the scientific ecosystem. The platform will be driven

Open house scheduled for Highway 22/Dodd Rd design concepts

Minnesota Department of Transportation

The Minnesota Department of Transportation is seeking community feedback on the design concepts for a future Highway 22/Dodd Rd project in St Peter.

MnDOT, in partnership with the city and Nicollet County, is inviting the public to attend an open house on Wednesday, March 15 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the St Peter Community Center Senior Room.  No formal presentation is planned, and attendees can arrive anytime to review concepts, talk with project staff, and share input.

Those unable to attend the open house can view design concepts on the project website and complete an online survey to provide input through March 31.

Design concepts were developed with input from residents, businesses, and the St Peter school district.  The current transportation study will help state and local officials identify ways to improve safety and mobility along Highway 22/Dodd Rd, eventually arriving at a
