PAN is a free week-long program for current high school students.

Online PAN: Both Michigan State University and the University of Notre Dame have cancelled in-person K-12 summer programs for 2020. We are hosting an online version of the program July 27-31, taking place during the original week of PAN@MSU.

The online PAN will incorporate lectures and Q&As with faculty from a variety of JINA institutions, as well as interactive activities and remote experiments in small groups with a mentor.

------------------------------------------------

PAN is sponsored by the Joint Institute for Nuclear Astrophysics - Center for the Evolution of the Elements (JINA-CEE) which is a Physics Frontier Center funded by the National Science Foundation.

The program takes place at one of two world leading nuclear physics laboratories: Nuclear Science Laboratory located on the campus of the University of Notre Dame and the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory located on the campus of Michigan State University. Lectures and experiments are led by NSL and NSCL faculty, staff, and students. The program introduces participants to the fundamentals of the extremely small domain of atomic nuclei and its connection to the extremely large domain of astrophysics and cosmology.
