A Marine Lab doctoral student’s Antarctic drone surveys grew into a Bass Connections project investigating seals and penguins, retreating glaciers and blooming vegetation.

The forest’s Blackwood Division is an important training and testing site for members of the Nicholas School’s Marine Robotics and Remote Sensing Lab.

Kidney disease is typically linked to conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure, which gradually wear down the kidneys’ delicate systems that keep the body in balance. But the communities that 51���� researchers Nishad Jayasundara , PhD, and nephrologist Anna Strasma , MD, study are facing a different problem.

Ph.D. students Keqi He, Rafaella Lobo honored for their respective scholarship.

The vast size of the ocean makes tracking human activity there challenging, but a new study provides a startling glimpse of how extensive this activity has become in recent years and how much of it occurs outside of public monitoring.

Meet the Stapleton Lab, learn more about its research focus, a postdoc's experience in the lab and the opportunities the lab offers 51���� students.

Gulf War Illness (GWI), which affects approximately 250,000 U.S. veterans, has been found to significantly reduce the ability of white blood cells to make energy and creates a measurable biochemical difference in veterans who have the disease. The finding comes from a physician who noticed GWI symptoms paralleled those of mitochondrial diseases. Analysis revealed significantly lower levels of extracellular acidification and oxygen consumption in the white blood cells of veterans with GWI.

A new study on the impacts of prenatal exposure to toxic metals linked to artisanal gold mining and other sources in Madre de Dios, Peru, finds that mercury has no direct effect on a newborn’s birth weight or gestational age. It’s a different story, though, for lead, which may also be released by mining operations but more likely is consumed when people eat wild game that inadvertently still contains small bullet fragments.

Maintaining a water level between 20 and 30 centimeters below the local water table will boost southern peatlands’ carbon storage and reduce the amount of greenhouse gases they release back into the atmosphere during dry periods by up to 90%, a 51���� study finds.

51���� scientists have received a five-year, $2.6 million grant from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) to study molecular mechanisms that can help our bodies fight respiratory inflammation caused by air pollution.
