Pedro Maia, UTA assistant professor of mathematics, is part of a research team which used a new brain-mapping technique to identify memory-related brain cells vulnerable to protein buildup, a key factor in the development of Alzheimer’s disease. In Texas, nearly half a million people live with Alzheimer’s, a form of dementia that costs the state approximately $24 billion in caregiver time, according to the Texas Department of State Health Services. Texas ranks fourth in the nation for Alzheimer’s cases and second in Alzheimer’s-related deaths.

Shane DuBay, UTA assistant professor of biology, is co-author of a new study that found high concentrations of microplastics in the lungs of birds of various species. Researchers worldwide are increasingly alarmed by how pervasive these harmful particles are in the air humans breathe and the food they eat. Dubay said birds were chosen for the study because they are found in almost every corner of the world and often share environments with humans.

Join us at 4 p.m. tomorrow (Feb. 11) in SEIR 298 for our Distinguished Women in Science Speaker Series featuring Dr. Asmeret Asefaw Berhe, professor of soil biogeochemistry and Falasco Chair in Earth Sciences and Geology at the University of California, Merced. Dr. Berhe was director of the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science from May 2022 to March 2024 and was the first person of color to direct the office, which is the single largest funder of the physical sciences in the U.S. Her talk, "From Roots to Reach: One Scientist's Quest to Understand Soils, Confront Climate Change, and Open Doors in STEM", is open to the public and is geared toward a general audience. A reception will precede the talk at 3:30 p.m. in SEIR 298. #MaverickScience #WomeninSTEM

J. Ping Liu, UTA professor of physics, is leading a project to develop a more efficient process for sourcing rare earth elements needed to produce high-performance magnets. Liu received a $1.3 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy for the study, which aims to make the mining of these critical materials more cost-efficient and environmentally sustainable by using cheaper, more abundant materials.

UTA's Amphibian and Reptile Diversity Research Center (ARDRC) has become one of the largest publicly accessible herpetology libraries in the world, thanks to in-kind donations of tens of thousands of rare books, scientific journals, and articles, and reports over the past two years. In recognition of a generous donation from the Joseph Rex Dinardo Jr. Herpetology and Natural History Science Research Trust in Philadelphia, the ARDRC has named the library for Joseph Dinardo, Jr, an amateur herpetologist and nature enthusiast who amassed an enormous collection of literature and reptiles during his lifetime, and which now constitutes the bulk of the ARDRC library.
