iFOCUS Science Colloquium Lecture Series
The iFOCUS Science Colloquium Series is a semester-long lecture series that offers everyone in the Linfield University community the opportunity to learn about science across the traditional science disciplines of biology, chemistry, math, physics, and computer science. The lecture series is made possible in part by generous gifts from the Hearst Foundations and is sponsored by the Linfield University Physics Department.
