SUMMARY:(ONLINE) Call to Action: Research Against COVID-19 Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Post event update: The registration for this event is closed. Watch the webinar below or on YouTube\, and read more about the event. For more information on how you can participate in the programs at ASRC Sensor CAT\, please visit the Sensor CAT website or contact Tavis Ezell at tezell@gc.cuny.edu. \n\n\nThe ASRC Sensor Center for Advanced Technology (CAT) works hand-in-hand with state government to fund New York-based industrial development of advanced sensor technology. In light of the current COVID-19 crisis\, the state is calling for swift thinking from our STEM community and for the ASRC to lend its state-of-the-art core facilities and expertise to support fast-track development and commercialization of technology that can be used to address the challenge of  preventing\, managing and stemming infectious disease pandemics. ​ \nPlease register for the webinar if you and your industry partner have a potentially applicable idea that could be immediately put into action with economic support from our CAT. We are devising means to open lab space at the ASRC for supported projects\, and we have gained approval from New York state for ​additional flexibility in funding. We can also help you identify and match with your potential industry or academic partners. \nWe want to hear how we can support you and your industry partner’s participation in the state’s call to action. The April 7th webinar will be a critical opportunity to learn how ASRC Sensor CAT can support you and your industry partner’s participation in this urgent to call to action\, and to also explore what resources are immediately available in this time of crisis. \nQuestions?  \nContact Jiye Son\, json2@gc.cuny.edu and Tavis Ezell\, tezell@gc.cuny.edu \nSchedule\n  \n\n\n\n2:00 pm\nResearch against COVID-19 \n\n\n\nNina Gray\, Executive Director of ASRC\nRein Ulijn\, Director of ASRC Sensor CAT and Nanoscience Initiative\nTavis Ezell\, Business Development Director of ASRC Sensor CAT\nRicardo Toledo-Crow\, Director of Next Generation Environmental Sensors Facility at ASRC\n\n\n2:15 pm\nWhat are researchers doing?\n\n\n\nAdam Braunschweig\, Associate Professor\, Nanoscience Initiative\, ASRC\nAlan Lyons\, Professor\, College of Staten Island\nChrista Avampato\, CEO\, Double or Nothing Media\nJacob Trevino\, Principal Scientist\, Chemeleon\nJames Scholtz\, CEO\, VYIR Inc.\n\n\n2:40 pm\nQ&A Panel\n\n\n\nNorman Sabio\, Infectious Disease Specialist and Internal Medicine Practitioner\nRein Ulijn\, Director of ASRC Sensor CAT and Nanoscience Initiative\nTavis Ezell\, Business Development Director of ASRC Sensor CAT

SUMMARY:Environmental Sciences Seminar: David J. Nowak\, Ph.D.\, USDA Forest Service
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: David J. Nowak\, Ph.D. Senior Scientist / i-Tree Team Leader USDA Forest Service \nTitle: The Changing Urban Forest \nAbstract: Urban forests can help mitigate the causes and impacts of environmental degradation\, but are constantly changing due to various factors. To sustain healthy city environments\, cities need to understand the environmental services provided by trees and forces that threaten future forest health. This presentation will discuss how trees affect their local environment and climate\, how and why urban forests are changing\, and what cities could do to help sustain healthy urban forests and consequently healthy city environments for future generations. \nBio: David J. Nowak is a Senior Scientist and Team Leader with the USDA Forest Service in Syracuse\, NY. Dr. Nowak received a B.S. and M.S. from SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry\, and a Ph.D. from the University of California\, Berkeley. His research investigates urban forest structure\, health\, and change\, and its effect on human health and environmental quality across the world. He has authored over 325 publications and leads teams developing the i-Tree software suite that quantifies the benefits and values from vegetation. \nFor more information about joining in on Zoom\, contact Doris Switzer at dswitzer@gc.cuny.edu

SUMMARY:Environmental Sciences Seminar: Jason Smith\, NY Restoration Project & Chester Zarnoch\, Baruch College
DESCRIPTION:Speakers: \nJason Smith\, MS\, MFA Director of Northern Manhattan Parks for the NY Restoration Project \nChester Zarnoch\, PhD Professor CUNY\, Dept. of Natural Science at Baruch College \nTitle: A Living Shoreline on the Harlem River: From Design Challenges to Ecosystem Services \nAbstract: The Sherman Creek Living Shoreline is an intervention intended to adapt a coastal park in Northern Manhattan to the impacts of climate change while improving the ecosystem function of the shoreline. In the Spring of 2020 an artificial oyster reef will be installed in the Harlem River to alter sediment dynamics and facilitate the establishment of intertidal wetlands. As a collaboration between a non-profit\, government agencies\, and CUNY researchers\, this project is an example of how to integrate collaborative research into the adaptation of urban public space. Ongoing research will assess the role of mussels in the success of wetland establishment\, and evaluate changes to carbon storage and sediment gas fluxes. This work will demonstrate the potential of living shorelines to provide critical ecosystem services in eutrophic waters such as the Harlem River. \nBios: \nJason Smith is the Director of Northern Manhattan Parks for the New York Restoration Project. In this capacity\, he manages the stewardship of parkland and implements projects that enhance the resilience of northern Manhattan communities. Jason’s interests include ecological land management and nexus of design and conservation in cities. Prior to working at NYRP\, Jason taught art and design at SUNY Buffalo and Canisius College. Jason received an MS from Brooklyn College in Earth and Environmental Science and an MFA in Visual Art from SUNY Buffalo. Jason’s experiences in construction\, landscaping\, art and education inform his approach to interdisciplinary urban research and practice. \nChester B. Zarnoch holds a Ph.D. in Biology and is a Professor of Environmental Studies and Biology at Baruch College\, City University of New York (CUNY) and is Graduate Faculty in the Biology Program at CUNY’s Graduate Center. He has been an active researcher in marine ecology and aquaculture since 2001 and has published papers on shellfish biology\, sediment nitrogen cycling\, and intensive aquaculture. His current research aims to describe the biological and physical processes that influence ecosystem services derived from restored habitats in eutrophic estuaries.
