Two Marine and Environmental Sciences professors are featured in Men's Journal.

When asso­ciate pro­fessor of physics Latika Menon peered under the elec­tron micro­scope last fall, she didn't dis­cov­er art imi­tating nature, rather she found nature imi­tating art.

There are examples of art imitating nature all around us--whether it's Monet's pastel Water Lilies or Chihuly's glassblown Seaforms, the human conception of natural pehnomena dazzles but does not often surprise.

More than 35 mil­lion people around the world now live with HIV/ ​AIDS. While drug dis­covery efforts to combat the dis­ease have been suc­cessful, mul­tiple treat­ments are required because the virus mutates and develops resis­tance to indi­vidual drugs.

In 2011, sci­en­tists suc­cess­fully engi­neered a lethal avian flu virus to be trans­mis­sible between birds as well as mam­mals and pos­sibly humans.

Together with faculty members from three of the University's Colleges, Professor Brian Helmuth is working to communicate about climate change through his own work and that of the Urban Coastal Sustainability Initiative.

Brian Helmuth's work was recently featured in International innovation.

North­eastern researchers are teaming up with Jacques Cousteau’s grandson to reignite the famous oceanographer’s sin­gular vision.
