Abstract: As a result of human activity, seagrass ecosystems are being lost at an alarming rate, and restoration efforts have experienced mixed success. Effective management of seagrass meadows requires an ecosystem-level understanding of the impact of co-occurring stressors on seagrass communities, an understanding of the factors influencing seagrass stability and ecosystem functions, and collaboration and […]

Abstract The forthcoming era of energy systems, propulsion, space re-entry vehicles, and nuclear reactors points to structural materials that can withstand increasingly extreme thermal environments. Body-centered cubic (BCC) refractory alloys are attracting renewed attention owing to the nature of atomic bonding and internal plastic dissipation pathways, yet at ambient conditions, they tend to exhibit ceramic-like […]

Bacteria are arguably the simplest form of life; and yet, as multi-cellular collectives, they perform complex functions critical to the environment, food, health and industry. What principles govern how complex behaviors emerge in bacterial collectives? And how can we harness them to control bacterial behavior? In this talk, I will describe my group’s work addressing […]

  The Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering is hosting an Engaging ONR workshop on March 25 from 3-5pm. The purpose of this workshop is to help UF faculty that have not yet worked with the Office of Naval Research (ONR) understand the process, timeline, and successful strategies for obtaining and sustaining funding from that agency. During this workshop […]
