SUMMARY:Georgia Science Junction - Navigating the Flow: Visualizing How Water is Managed
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text css=””]Saturday\, July 27\, 7-9 pm \nIn-Person and Streaming \nLocation: Manuel’s Tavern\, 602 N Highland Ave NE\, Atlanta\, GA 30307 \nFeatured Speakers: Maya Goldman and Chris Rice\n \nHave you ever wondered how utilities and governments understand\, plan and manage the vast amounts of water flowing through their communities? Hear the planning and global information systems perspective. What tools exist to map out the array of water infrastructure in your communities? How are national and local data utilized to understand and plan for an array of water related challenges? From raining and rivers to treatment and taps\, we’ll give a high-level overview with interactive mapping and imagery. Hopefully by the end you know a little more about how communities manage water\, and how data\, science\, and city planning come together to build more resilient and reliable systems.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=”” text_align=”left” font_size=”24px” line_height=”1.2em” font_weight=”bold”]More About Our Speakers[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=””]Maya Goldman\nTechnical Assistance Manager & Stormwater Planner\, Metropolitan North Georgia Water Planning District \nMaya Goldman serves as Stormwater Principal Planner and Technical Assistance Program Manager for the Metropolitan North Georgia Water Planning District\, helping local communities with stormwater management and flooding challenges and connecting regional partners to available District resources. \nMaya has a passion for public policy and a technical background in various water resources subjects from her previous work in engineering consulting.

SUMMARY:The Science of Choice: Why Ranked Choice Voting Isn't Just for Politics
DESCRIPTION:The Science of Choice: Why Ranked Choice Voting Isn’t Just for Politics \nTuesday\, May 21st 7pm-9pm \nIn-Person and Streaming \nLocation: Mutation Brewing\, 5825 Roswell Rd NE\, Sandy Springs\, GA 30328\, We will be in the Speakeasy at Mutation\, Straight ahead from the main entrance in the back. Ask at the Bar if the door is closed. \nWhy is it so hard for third-party candidates to win modern elections? How does voting in political races differ from the way college teams are ranked or how the Oscars are awarded? And how can a business\, city\, or state choose among multiple candidates for a program without a costly and time-consuming runoff procedure? The answers to these questions can be found in understanding concepts from Ranked Choice Voting and Game Theory\, a branch of mathematics devoted to interactive decisions.   \nIf you’ve heard phrases like “win-win” and “zero-sum” or seen movies like “The Dark Knight” and “A Beautiful Mind”\, you’ve already been exposed to ideas from game theory. In particular\, we will look at alternative voting mechanisms\, and how you can implement them with your organization\, whether it’s something like choosing a location for the office holiday party\, deciding on what brand of coffee to put in the break room\, or how to select a board chairman from several candidates.  \nThose wanting a preview of some of the topics can check out the interactive web apps here on The Evolution of Trust and Building a Better Ballot or follow this link to Sci4ga’s Ranked Choice white paper. \nncase.me/trust/\nncase.me/ballot/  \nFeatured Speaker: Jason Quinley   \nJason Quinley is a Venture Capital Consultant and Data Scientist with a research background in applied mathematics and computational linguistics. He joins us by way of the Atlanta Society for Data Science & Business Intelligence\, of which he is the president.    \nJason has a further background as an educator and political consultant\, where he created the first Game Theory course for high-schoolers nationwide. His speaking engagements include talks in over twenty cities and five countries on topics like integrating psychological realism with economic theory\, modeling deception and cooperation\, simulating historical language contact\, and applying neuroeconomics to linguistics pragmatics\, and prototyping apps with artificial intelligence.   \nThe Science of Choice

SUMMARY:ASF: A Scoop of Science
DESCRIPTION:  \nA Scoop of Science is SOLD OUT! Thank you for your support! See you on the 16th! \nWe all scream for ice cream! But have you ever really thought about what it is? A liquid? A solid? A glass? Ice cream has more in common with toothpaste\, froth\, and glass than you might expect. Join physicists Daniel Sussman and Michael Czajkowski for an exploration of the physics of disordered solids\, and answers to the questions you never knew to ask about ice cream. ​We promise the only brain freeze will come from the ice cream\, not from the science! \nAtlanta Science Festival ticketing opens January 25th! \nGet your tickets here!
