East Meets West, Then and Now: Learning from the Legacies of Transpacific Families

MIT Chinese Alumni Group

Wednesday, May 21, 7:00pm - 8:00pm (America/New_York)

More Info & RSVP

Event Details

Register to participate in a live interactive event with Emma Teng, Professor of Asian Civilizations at MIT.
 
Prof. Teng will share her research on transpacific mixed families and take questions from alumni.
 
In an earlier era of globalization, growing US-China trade, missionary endeavors, transpacific educational exchanges and migration led to the formation of mixed Chinese-Western families, challenging taboos against interracial marriage at the time. Yet, their histories have often been hidden in service to these taboos. What lessons can we learn from the hidden histories of transpacific mixed families and their lived experiences in the US, China and Hong Kong bridging cultural and national differences?
 
Moderator: Humphrey Chen '90, MIT Chinese Alumni Group
 
About the Speaker
 
Emma J. Teng is the T.T. and Wei Fong Chao Professor of Asian Civilizations at MIT. She is the author of Taiwan's Imagined Geography: Chinese Colonial Travel Writing and Pictures, 1683-1895 (2004) and Eurasian: Mixed Identities in the United States, China and Hong Kong, 1842-1943 (2013).

Tour of the University of Rochester Laboratory for Laser Energetics

When: Friday, May 30,2025 at 3:00 PM

Where:  250 E River Rd, Rochester, NY 14623

Free, Registration will open on May 1, Attendance is limited to 25.

The Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) was founded in the fall of 1970. The mission of the Laboratory was to investigate the interaction of intense laser radiation with matter. LLE was established as a multidisciplinary teaching and research center for the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences. 

The Laboratory has a five-fold mission:
  • 1. To conduct implosion experiments and basic physics experiments in support of the National Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) program.
  • 2. To develop new laser and materials technologies.
  • 3. To provide graduate and undergraduate education in electro-optics, high-power lasers, high-energy-density physics, plasma physics, and nuclear fusion technology.
  • 4. To operate the National Laser Users' Facility.
  • 5. To conduct research and development in advanced technology related to high-energy-density phenomena.
