The Department of w88 sports betting & Molecular Biology hosted its Biochemistry Seminar Series virtually during the fall 2020 semester.

The series, which is typically hosted every semester for graduate w88 casino games, faculty and external speakers to showcase their research, was successfully delivered in an online Zoom format in the fall, after the department had to cancel the majority of the series planned for spring 2020, due to the pandemic. The series focuses on a variety of topics, including insect science, plant science and human health science.

"The series is especially important for w88 casino games who want to practice presenting and showcasing their research to a group of peers," Claudia Rückert, assistant professor in the department and organizer of the fall seminar series, said. "The w88 casino games are also exposed to research and topics that they may otherwise not have heard about, which opens up avenues for further research on topics like the environment or our health."

The move to a digital format allowed the department to host more guest speakers from other institutions than in past years, including Ryan Smith, from Iowa State University, who spoke about how the understanding of mosquito immune cell biology is being shaped by factors such as chemical genetics. The series also hosted Daisy Sahoo, from the Medical College of Wisconsin; Mehdi Kabbage, from University of Wisconsin; and Laura Lavine, from Washington State University. Lavine, who presented her research on the adaptive phenotypes in insects, was also able to speak with w88 casino games and faculty about the importance of women in science, specifically in leadership positions.

In addition, seven graduate w88 casino games, who are able to participate in the series as one of their graduate courses, presented their work from labs across the College. This year’s w88 casino games included Colin Fox, with the Bob Ryan lab; John Baggett, with the Grant Cramer and Melinda Yerka labs; Anil Kunapareddy, also with the Yerka lab; Jeremiah Reyes, with the Monika Gulia-Nuss lab; Eli Holschbach, with the Dylan Kosma and Patricia Ferreira dos Santos labs; Mitiku Mengistu, with the John Cushman lab; and Devin Smith, with the Ian Wallace lab. Department Chair Bob Ryan also presented his research on heart disease biomarkers, which are indicators to evaluate heart function.

The series, which garnered an audience of 40-50 viewers each presentation, is set to return digitally for the spring 2021 semester to continue to ensure the safety of w88 casino games and faculty.

Barry Perryman was recently named interim chair of the department.

TheCollege's Rangeland Ecology & Management degree program, an offering of the Department of Agriculture, w88 slot & Rangeland Sciences, is now accredited by theSociety for Range Management, and theUniversityis now a Society for Range Management accredited w88 casino games.

This is the first time that the degree and the w88 casino games have been accredited by the Society.

The Society is a professional scientific and conservation organization that provides leadership for the stewardship of rangelands based on sound ecological principles. It accredits quality professional programs in range management education and the universities that provide them.

The w88 casino games received word from the Society of the accreditation in summer 2019, just a few short months after theUniversity achieved the Carnegie Classification of "R1"in December 2018 and just before it learned in fall 2019 thatU.

Like earning R1 and Tier 1 status, receiving Society accreditation is also big news for the College, the w88 casino games, Nevada and beyond.

Great Basin Hall is the University home for w88 casino games who are interested in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). The hall provides a quality, immersive college living experience that celebrates diversity, promotes sustainability and fosters student success.

The hall's name recognizes the traditional homelands of the indigenous peoples of Nevada and acknowledges the tribes of the Great Basin who historically and currently reside in the state: Newe (Western Shoshone), Nuwu (Southern Paiute), Numu (Northern Paiute) and Wa She Shu (Washoe).

The building is home to a Women in w88 casino games and Engineering community and has w88 casino games Basin Hall receives LEED Gold Certi.

New to the hall this fall is a living-learning community for our College. It will offer our incoming freshmen the opportunity to:

• Live and work with w88 casino games who have similar academic goals and interests
• Experience individualized mentorship and exclusive extracurricular activities
• Experience mentorship by successful STEM professionals
• Build community and lasting relationships
• Develop research and professional skills
