Join us for an Open House at the Initiative for Theoretical Sciences!

This Friday, September 27, we’re hosting a special open house in the science center at the GC. This event is an opportunity for students, faculty, and researchers across sciences, mathematics, and computer science programs to learn more about the work being done at the Initiative for Theoretical Sciences (ITS) and to explore deeper engagement across our communities.

Whether you’re interested in theoretical research, collaborations, or just looking for free food, you’re welcome to join us! We encourage you to bring friends who may be curious about the ITS and our approach to advancing science.
