The annual Science Talk and Movie Night is back, and if you have interests in science, engineering, special effects, and/or modeling, then you may find this event particularly exciting! We will be hosting a science and engineering talk by Christian Hanson, a simulation engineer at Mayo Clinic's Anatomical Modeling Unit, that will be followed by a screening of National Geographic's Augmented. This event is organized through collaboration with three local organizations (Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Mayo Clinic IEEE Biomedical Engineering and Medicine, and the Mayo Clinic Graduate School) and is open to all in our community with no cost to the attendees. Event details are delineated below:

Christian Hanson

Biography:

Christian Hanson is a simulation engineer at Mayo Clinic’s Anatomic Modeling Unit, specializing in the design and fabrication of highly realistic medical task trainers and patient education models. He has been fascinated by the art of special makeup effects since childhood, and has taken his interest in sculpture, painting, molding and fabrication into a variety of subjects. In addition to film effects, these include collectible models, Halloween masks and props, set building, animal sculptures, museum environments and his current field of medical simulation. Over the last few years, he has branched into digital sculpting and CAD design, creating new ways to merge his traditional art skills and effects techniques with the latest in 3D printing technology.

Christian lives in Rochester, MN with his wife and daughter.
