New U-M research by Lauren Hart, a recent PhD graduate in biological chemistry, and Greg Dick, SEAS professor and director of CIGLR, shows that harmful algae blooms in Lake Erie produce a greater range of toxic compounds than previously known.
SEAS Assistant Professor Nina Brooks is one of the authors of a new study that analyzed data from more than 10,000 cities worldwide, providing governments and agencies with information to help evaluate cities' strengths and vulnerabilities, and determine how best to allocate resources and support populations.
As superintendent of Indiana Dunes National Park, Jason Taylor leads an “exceptional team” that is responsible for everything that happens within the park’s boundaries, from ecological stewardship and restoration to visitor engagement and experience. The park sits within three hours of about 30 million people, so in addition to stewarding the fifth most biodiverse national park, Taylor works every day to help make it “the people’s park.”
