Brookhaven National Lab in New York is home to some of the most exciting work in nuclear physics today. Two rising stars from ��������, doctoral student Maci Kesler and research scientist Sooraj Radhakrishnan, are on the cutting edge of high-profile scientific research collaborations through Brookhaven that advance our understanding of the universe’s early moments. Both work with Zhangbu Xu, Ph.D., professor at Kent State's Department of Physics in the College of Arts and Sciences, who has a research focus in high-energy nuclear physics. Their research connects Kent State to ...

Kent State’s wetlands at the Herrick Aquatic Ecosystem Research Facility were the training grounds for senior Nick Brocato, who was recently a fellow in the Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE).  Brocato, a senior biology major, and Tamera Owens, a sophomore majoring in public health, spent the summer researching a broad question: how effective are wetlands at “being the kidneys of the landscape” by cleaning up contaminants such as nitrogen and phosphorus?Recently, Brocato spoke to Kent State Today about the SURE project and how the experience will fit into his plans for a...

Like mother, like daughter. Meet Christine Woo, Ph.D, and Nathalie Nicol, BSPH – mother and daughter - both graduates of the �������� College of Public Health. While Woo was completing her doctorate in 2022, Nicol was just starting her journey at Kent State. “Our time together at Kent State overlapped just at the very end, as mom was finishing up her Ph.D and I was a freshman just getting started in public health,” says Nicol. ...
