Exciting news! The 11th Annual Michigan State University Science Festival will be held on the MSU campus from April 1 to 30, 2023. The Festival Team is so excited to return to in-person events after being online only for the ''20-'21 festival, and hybrid during the '22 event. 

The MSU Science Festival is a free annual celebration of science fueled by curiosity, wonder, and discovery, which are essential to scientific inquiry.

Mark your calendars and keep an eye out for updated information about the festival over the next few months.

We are so excited to be bringing back our annual Mini-Conference this year! Please join us for poster presentations, lunch, and our keynote speaker, Dr. Megan Bang.  (RECORDING OF MEGAN'S TALK AT BOTTOM OF THIS POSTING)

We are so excited to have two visiting scholars with us, Francesco De Zuani Cassina from Italy, and Niklas Karlsen from Norway. We are delighted that they will present their research to us. 

Please plan to join us on Tuesday, 4/25, and Monday, 5/1, in CREATE!
