We’re saddened to hear of the loss of Dr. Justin Schmidt, a renowned UArizona Entomologist. Justin has made appearances in Jimmy Kimmel Live, the Guinness World Records, and was featured in our documentary film Insecta. Our hearts and minds are with his family and friends.

We’re grateful to have the opportunity to team up with community members, biologists, and rangeland professionals to help disseminate stories of their scientific efforts. Check out some pictures of our team out on the field this week!

Great film from @UArizonaCALS's @StoriesLandmark on Regents Prof Ian Pepper's leadership during the pandemic. Thanks to his team, wastewater testing is now used across the U.S. & saves lives. The best kind of impact we hope for as a land-grant university. https://t.co/MjgfWAPrbv
