OpenHour is an interactive seminar hosted by the Public Lab Community both online and in person. The topics of open hour vary from presentations on tools and methods, discussions on environmental issues, to approaches to data-based advocacy. OpenHour is a great way to meet people in the Public Lab Community. Bring your research, your ideas, and your questions; and join us for OpenHour. OpenHour is held the first Monday of the month. OpenHour time rotates between 8:00pm EST (odd months) and 1:00pm EST (even months)! See OpenHour schedule below for times and topics. The event is held right from this page, so join us here for the event! OpenHour Schedule:Thursday October 8th: Live CallJoin us in the live call:: https://hangouts.google.com/call/mknrp6ozit6745twsiyszqmqyea As a follow-up to the September Open Hour "Transparency in Environmental Policy and Science", we are having a small discussion on transparency in environmental policy and science and its surprising application in the Secret Science Reform Act of 2015 Daniel Sarewitz will be joining us, please read his piece in Nature as a preview. Philip Silva, Public Lab organizer, will also be joining us to bring his perspectives on science and politics. Can't wait for a OpenHour? Request a Live Call!Live Calls are a great way to connect with fellow Public Labbers on projects and ideas that fall outside the OpenHour times and topic schedule. They are designed to help you connect with fellow Public Labbers to brainstorm, share ideas and move forward on projects. These calls will be open to the Public Lab community and access information will be posted on the OpenHour Page. Past OpenHoursMonday, October 5th: Formaldehyde and the Plant Remediation ExperimentFormaldehyde "is the most common and most toxicologically understood indoor air pollutant," it's just about everywhere. But beyond thinking about it, what if there was something we could do about it? A this OpenHour we'll be talking about Public Lab's new Where We Breathe project and discussing how you can build a plant remediation experiment for about $20 - no soldering or microchips needed! The plants that we are going to be experimenting with have been lab-tested by NASA for cleaning air in space stations. In this call we were joined by :
Wednesday, September 9th: "Transparency in Environmental Policy and Science."Environmental Science and Policy affects everyone, yet people can find themselves in situations where the language used is unclear, text heavy or full of jargon. In this OpenHour we will explore this issue, and how people tried to address it. During this OpenHour we were joined by:

The event is held right from this page, so join us here for the event! OpenHour Schedule:Thursday October 8th: Live CallAs a follow-up to the September OpenHour "Transparency in Environmental Policy and Science", we are having a small discussion on transparency in environmental policy and science and its surprising application in the Secret Science Reform Act of 2015 Daniel Sarewitz will be joining us, please read his piece in Nature as a preview. Philip Silva, Public Lab organizer, will also be joining us to bring his perspectives on science and politics. Can't wait for a OpenHour? Request a Live Call!Live Calls are a great way to connect with fellow Public Labbers on projects and ideas that fall outside the OpenHour times and topic schedule. They are designed to help you connect with fellow Public Labbers to brainstorm, share ideas and move forward on projects. These calls will be open to the Public Lab community and access information will be posted on the OpenHour Page. Past OpenHoursMonday, October 5th: Formaldehyde and the Plant Remediation ExperimentFormaldehyde "is the most common and most toxicologically understood indoor air pollutant," it's just about everywhere. But beyond thinking about it, what if there was something we could do about it? A this OpenHour we'll be talking about Public Lab's new Where We Breathe project and discussing how you can build a plant remediation experiment for about $20 - no soldering or microchips needed! The plants that we are going to be experimenting with have been lab-tested by NASA for cleaning air in space stations. In this call we were joined by :
Wednesday, September 9th: "Transparency in Environmental Policy and Science."Environmental Science and Policy affects everyone, yet people can find themselves in situations where the language used is unclear, text heavy or full of jargon. In this OpenHour we will explore this issue, and how people tried to address it. During this OpenHour we were joined by:

But beyond thinking about it, what if there was something we could do about it? A this OpenHour we'll be talking about Public Lab's new Where We Breathe project and discussing how you can build a plant remediation experiment for about $20 - no soldering or microchips needed! The plants that we are going to be experimenting with have been lab-tested by NASA for cleaning air in space stations. We'll be joined by :
Can't wait for a OpenHour? Request a Live Call!Live Calls are a great way to connect with fellow Public Labbers on projects and ideas that fall outside the OpenHour times and topic schedule. They are designed to help you connect with fellow Public Labbers to brainstorm, share ideas and move forward on projects. These calls will be open to the Public Lab community and access information will be posted on the OpenHour Page. Past OpenHoursWednesday, September 9th: "Transparency in Environmental Policy and Science."Environmental Science and Policy affects everyone, yet people can find themselves in situations where the language used is unclear, text heavy or full of jargon. In this OpenHour we will explore this issue, and how people tried to address it. During this OpenHour we were joined by:

The event is held right from this page, so join us here for the event! OpenHour Schedule:Monday, October 5th, 1:00pm est: Formaldehyde and the Plant Remediation ExperimentFormaldehyde "is the most common and most toxicologically understood indoor air pollutant," it's just about everywhere. But beyond thinking about it, what if there was something we could do about it? A this OpenHour we'll be talking about Public Lab's new Where We Breathe project and discussing how you can build a plant remediation experiment for about $20 - no soldering or microchips needed! The plants that we are going to be experimenting with have been lab-tested by NASA for cleaning air in space stations. We'll be joined by :
Can't wait for a OpenHour? Request a Live Call!Live Calls are a great way to connect with fellow Public Labbers on projects and ideas that fall outside the OpenHour times and topic schedule. They are designed to help you connect with fellow Public Labbers to brainstorm, share ideas and move forward on projects. These calls will be open to the Public Lab community and access information will be posted on the OpenHour Page. Past OpenHoursWednesday, September 9th: "Transparency in Environmental Policy and Science."Environmental Science and Policy affects everyone, yet people can find themselves in situations where the language used is unclear, text heavy or full of jargon. In this OpenHour we will explore this issue, and how people tried to address it. During this OpenHour we were joined by:

The topics of open hour vary from presentations on tools and methods, discussions on environmental issues, to approaches to data-based advocacy. OpenHour is a great way to meet people in the Public Lab Community. Bring your research, your ideas, and your questions; and join us for OpenHour. OpenHour is held the first Monday of the month. OpenHour time rotates between 8:00pm EST (odd months) and 1:00pm EST (even months)! See OpenHour schedule below for times and topics. The event is held right from this page, so join us here for the event! OpenHour Schedule:Wednesday, September 9th 8:00pm est: "Transparency in Environmental Policy and Science."
