Two In-Person Keynote Talks with Dr. Beronda Montgomery, author of Lessons from Plants
Mentoring is often positioned as the transfer of information from an experienced, senior individual (or mentor) to a junior, inexperienced individual (or mentee). Implicit in this description are the ideas that at the core of mentoring is a process of teaching – to guide, instruct and that mentoring may largely be a one-way flow of information. Increasingly, however, mentoring is being understood as a process best facilitated through a bilateral exchange and flow of knowledge and learning between...

Reducing food waste and loss and enhancing the sustainability of global food systems is clearly a hot topic. However, the subject is more complicated and complex than some may think. This virtual symposium will not only address different implementation ready and emerging technology solutions but also will discuss the economics of food waste and loss reduction and the implementation challenges.

The symposium is designed to provide valuable information for...

Abstract: Precipitation is a consequential climate feature, which plays an important role in Earth’s physical geography and also its biosphere. As climate changes, so does the risk of disruption of the water cycle we have adapted to. The distribution of precipitation (or lack thereof) in space and time is anticipated to change, and in some respects already is changing, in response to warming. But quantifying the various aspects of this risk is a challenge because of the diverse sources of uncertainty – including natural variability, structural differences among climate models and their...

Bioactive materials of varying morphologies and compositions present opportunities in medicine, diagnostics, bioprocessing, and food & agriculture.  Effective design of new bioactive materials demands bridging innovation and pragmatism to enable synthesis of new material chemistries and bioactivities while addressing complexities of end-use applications (e.g. pH extremes, regulatory requirements, durability).  The Goddard lab has developed antimicrobial, antioxidant, and biocatalytic materials with demonstrated application in inactivating pathogenic and spoilage...
