Maintaining Connection During COVID
When the COVID-19 outbreak forced labs on campus to temporarily close, LSA Professor Ann Miller and her labmates maintained research momentum and personal connection with a bit of creativity, tea, and a lesson from frogs.
Why We Do Science
In class, Monica Dus helps her students understand how research is done and evaluated. In her lab, she tries to understand why we're hooked on sugar. In the winter 2020 semester, COVID-19 underscored why the science behind all of her work is so important.
