SIH Presents: Scientific Innovation and Entrepreneurship

Headshot of Prof. Joseph Bondy-Denomy
Prof. Joseph Bondy-Denomy may have first become known for his discovery of anti-CRISPRs during his Ph.D work at the University of Toronto, but these days he’s proving himself to be nothing less than prolific as he runs his own research group at the University of California San Francisco. He’s since expanded into the entrepreneurial space as a co-founder of Acrigen Biosciences, translating his one-of-a-kind anti-CRISPR expertise into technological applications.

The role of dams and the nearshore zone on phosphorus flows along the river-lake interface

With continued concern for eutrophication in the lower Great Lakes, scientists, government and stakeholders continue to work together towards effective management solutions. In these freshwater systems, phosphorus is a main driver of algal blooms. Our ability to manage phosphorus in these systems to improve water quality is limited by our understanding of phosphorus flows and cycling along rivers and into large lakes.

SIH Presents: Publishing Your Discoveries

Headshot of April Pawluk
Associate Scientific Editor April Pawluk was in the midst of a traditional academic research path when she realized that her true calling was in the world of scientific publication and not at a lab bench in Berkeley. Now she’s flourishing at Cell Press, helping to shape and facilitate the vast landscape of communicating novel scientific discoveries.
